The|ship was severely damaged in a hurricane and the company was washed|ashore on the Bernudan "Ile of Divels" on July 28th. The 150 survivors|were marooned on the island for nine months, building two vessels|which ultimately took them to Virginia. During the sojourn Stephen|Hopkins encouraged an uprising by his fellows upon grounds that the|Governor's authority pertained only to the voyage and the regime in|Virginia, not to the forced existance in Bermuda. For his remarks, he|was placed under guard, brought before the company in manacles and|sentanced to death by court-martial. "But so penitent hee was and made|so much moane, alleadging the ruine of his wife and Children in thie|his trespasse", according to William Strachey's record of the voyage,|that friends among his cohorts procured a pardon from the Governor.|The two newly built vessels, the "Patience" and the "Deliverence"|arrived at Jamestown on 5/24/1610, but no evidence has been found of|Hopkin's residence there and it is presumed he soon returned to his|family in England. Strachey noted that while Hopkins was very|religious, he was contentious and defiant of authority and possessed|enough learning to undertake to wrest leadership from others.||Stephen, his wife Elizabeth, and children Giles, Constance and Damaris|came on the Mayflower with two servants: Edward Doty and Edward|Leister. Son Oceanus was born during the voyage. The Mayflower arrived|at Cape Cod on 11/11/1620. Stephen signed the Mayflower Compact. He|was one of three men designated to provide counsel and advice to|Captain Myles Standish on the first land expedition of the Pilgrims in|the new world. During the third day out, the company chanced upon an|Indian deer trap, and stephen was able to explain its function and|danger to his fellows. In february 1620/21, when the Indians appeared|on a neighboring hilltop, Captain Standish took Stephen Hopkins with|him to negotiate with the "savages". Therafter, Stephen was invariably|deputized to meet the Indians and act as an interpreter. In July of|1621, he served as envoy to friendly Chief Massasoit, and he made a|friend for the solonists of Samoset, another Indian whom Stephen|entertained at his home.||Stephen was referred to as a merchant and planter in Plymouth records,|also as a "Gentleman" and "Master". He served as a voluntary in the|Pequot War of 1637.||Stephen found himself on accasion in official difficulty. In June|1636, he was fined for battery of John Tisdale. In 1637 and 1638 he|was charged with various indescretions involving the sale of|intoxicants and other items at his dwelling. In 1638/39 he was found|in contempt of court for refusing to deal fairly with Dorothy Temple,|an apprentice girl, and in December of 1639, he was charged with|selling a looking glass at an excessive price.|| deat: 17 JUL 1644 plac: Plymouth, Ma. marr: 1611 marr: 19 FEB 1617/18 plac: St. Mary's, Chester, England |   | ||||||||||||||

birt: 29 OCT 1581 plac: Wortley Parish, Wotten-under-Edge, Gloucester, England|Origin: London|Migration: 1620 Mayflower|First Residence: Plymouth|Occupation: Trader and Merchant|Freeman: 1633 List of Plymouth|Education: Signed his will. Owned books.|Offices: Assistant, Pequot War|Inventory: yellow rug, green rug, flanell sheets, white cap, gray|cloak, breeches, frying pan, funnels, fireshovel and tongs, feathers,|butter churn, two wheels, cheese rack, four skins, scale and weights,|two pails.|Parentage has not been proved but he may be the son of Stephen Hopkins|of Wortley, Parish of Wotton Underedge, Gloucester, England.||Stephen probably served as a Minister's clerk on the vessel "Sea|Venture" which sailed from London 6/2/1609, bound for Virginia. The|ship was severely damaged in a hurricane and the company was washed|ashore on the Bernudan "Ile of Divels" on July 28th. The 150 survivors|were marooned on the island for nine months, building two vessels|which ultimately took them to Virginia. During the sojourn Stephen|Hopkins encouraged an uprising by his fellows upon grounds that the|Governor's authority pertained only to the voyage and the regime in|Virginia, not to the forced existance in Bermuda. For his remarks, he|was placed under guard, brought before the company in manacles and|sentanced to death by court-martial. "But so penitent hee was and made|so much moane, alleadging the ruine of his wife and Children in thie|his trespasse", according to William Strachey's record of the voyage,|that friends among his cohorts procured a pardon from the Governor.|The two newly built vessels, the "Patience" and the "Deliverence"|arrived at Jamestown on 5/24/1610, but no evidence has been found of|Hopkin's residence there and it is presumed he soon returned to his|family in England. Strachey noted that while Hopkins was very|religious, he was contentious and defiant of authority and possessed|enough learning to undertake to wrest leadership from others.||Stephen, his wife Elizabeth, and children Giles, Constance and Damaris|came on the Mayflower with two servants: Edward Doty and Edward|Leister. Son Oceanus was born during the voyage. The Mayflower arrived|at Cape Cod on 11/11/1620. Stephen signed the Mayflower Compact. He|was one of three men designated to provide counsel and advice to|Captain Myles Standish on the first land expedition of the Pilgrims in|the new world. During the third day out, the company chanced upon an|Indian deer trap, and stephen was able to explain its function and|danger to his fellows. In february 1620/21, when the Indians appeared|on a neighboring hilltop, Captain Standish took Stephen Hopkins with|him to negotiate with the "savages". Therafter, Stephen was invariably|deputized to meet the Indians and act as an interpreter. In July of|1621, he served as envoy to friendly Chief Massasoit, and he made a|friend for the solonists of Samoset, another Indian whom Stephen|entertained at his home.||Stephen was referred to as a merchant and planter in Plymouth records,|also as a "Gentleman" and "Master". He served as a voluntary in the|Pequot War of 1637.||Stephen found himself on accasion in official difficulty. In June|1636, he was fined for battery of John Tisdale. In 1637 and 1638 he|was charged with various indescretions involving the sale of|intoxicants and other items at his dwelling. In 1638/39 he was found|in contempt of court for refusing to deal fairly with Dorothy Temple,|an apprentice girl, and in December of 1639, he was charged with|selling a looking glass at an excessive price.|| deat: 17 JUL 1644 plac: Plymouth, Ma.
