THE HAZARD FAMILY OF RHODE ISLAND, by Caroline Robinson, page 1 & 2.
m. 1st Martha, who died in 1669.
m. 2nd Martha, widow of Thomas Sheirff, she died in 1691.
His name is first found in Boston MA in 1635. In 1638 he wasadmitted freeman of Portsmouth, RI. In 1639, he and eight others signedthe the following contract,preparatory of the settlement of Newport, RI.
The founders and first officers of the town of Newport were WilliamCoddington, Judge; Nicholas Easton, John Coggeshall, William Brenton,John Clarke, Jeremy Clark, Thomas Hazard, and Henry Bull, Elders; WilliamDyer, Clerk.
Sept. 2, 1639 he was admitted freemen of Newport, and 1640, March12, he was appointed a member of the General Court of Elections.
In the early history of the family it was almost an exception tofind a Hazard who did not marry a cousin, and it is a curious fact thatthe lines in which these marriages were the most frequent, were oftenmarked by the strongest men and women, both mentally and physically.
Thomas R. Hazard, in his "Recollections of Olden Times", has givenan account of the family that goes back, about 1060, on the borders ofSwitzerland. From the Duke de Charante he has given an interestingaccount of the changes in the name, until towards the close of theeighteenth century, when it was written Hazard.
Info from: Bertie Hinman Hoch, 55 Towne House Lane, Corpus Chirstie, TX78412 DIRECTORY OF HEADS OF N.E. FAMILIES, "he was a ship carpenter, onrecord at Boston 1635, freeman 1636: removed in a few years to RI; signedthe Covenant of Cities 1639; was at Newtown, L.I. 1656. He died 1669."
