Synopsis

John Wheelwright: His Writings, Including His Fast-Day Sermon, 1637, And His Mercurius Americanus, 1645 ; With A Paper Upon The Genuineness Of The Indian Deed Of 1629 And A Memoir by John Wheelwright and Charles H. Bell. This volume assembles John Wheelwright’s principal writings—most notably his Fast-Day Sermon (1637) and Mercurius Americanus (1645)—together with a critical examination of the genuineness of the Indian deed of 1629, as well as a memoir concerning Wheelwright’s life. It also contains a facsimile of the Indian deeds and a historical discussion of frontier land titles in New England, including the legal and genealogical context surrounding Wheelwright’s settlement across New Hampshire and Massachusetts Bay. The companion memoir by Bell traces Wheelwright’s life from Lincolnshire, England to his Puritan ministry in Bilby, Mount Wollaston (Braintree), Exeter and Wells, and his later years in Hampton and Salisbury, detailing his trials, exile, reconciliation, and enduring influence on early New England religious and civic life. The work places Wheelwright within the broader Antinomian controversy and the colonial framework of religious liberty. It also discusses the social and legal complexities of land claims derived from Native transactions.
