History of the Simon Mills Family, Katie R Mills, Vol I
p3: "...Also in the year 1659 on 23 Feb the records of Windsor list the marriage of Simeon Mills and Mary Buell.
"It is probable that these two items in the year 1659gave rise to the supposed need of two men named Simon Mills in Windsor at that time, it being obvious that Simon Mills could not marry in February when his wife lived until July!
"Apparently those who worked on early Mills records failed to remember that in those days the New Year began in the middle of the month of March- not on January 1st as it does today. This arrangement puts the month of February at the end of the year instead of near the beginning. So the marriage to Mary Buell in February occurred more than seven months after the death of wife in July- both dates being at that time in the year 1659. Nowadays when one uses a date such as this, it is written Feb 1659/1660 to remind the reader of the difference in the calendar today and that of the 1600's. Then it was their year 1659, but now it is our year 1660.
"Mary Buell was a young girl then, in her 17th year, having been born at Windsor, 2 Sep 1642, eldest daughter of William and Mary (_____) Buell. William Buell was of Welsh origin, having come to America in 1630 with his mother, who was called in the records 'Goode Buell.' They had lived first at Dorchester, and then moved to Windsor, where the mother died 3 Dec 1639; and whereland was granted to William Buell 1 Dec 1640. Windsor records have his marriage 18 Nov 1640, but the name of the bride is not entered in the record. Her given name was Mary. They became parents of seven children, of whom five grew up and married. William Buell died at Windsor 16 Nov 1681; his widow Mary Buell died there 1 Sep 1684..."

p20: "The Family of Bevilles in England is very Ancient in that Country and of such note that Robert Beville was Knight of the Shire for Huntingdonshire, 12th Henry IV (1410); and Thomas Beville held the same office in 3rd and 5th Henry V (1415-1417). Sir Robert Beville of Chesterton in Huntingdonshire, Knight of the Bath, married Catharine, daughter of Sir John Goode, about 1600. She was a widow of Sir Robert Hampson, Knight, Alderman of London; also of Sir Gilbert Wakering.
"Catherine (daughter of Sir John Beville, who died in 1636) married Sir John Hewet, son of Sir Thomas Hewet of Pishiobury in Hertfordshire. Sir John was created a Baronet 11 Oct 1621.
"Catherine Beville was sister and co-heiress of Sir Richard Beville, of Chesterton in Huntingdonshire, Knight of the Bath, in the reign of King James I (1603-1625) and died 1640. This Sir Richard was the last maleheir of the Family. After his death in 1640 the estate was divided between Sir John Hewet of Worsley in Huntingdonshire and John Dryden Esq who had married the two sisters and co-heiresses of Sir Richard.
"The children of Catharine BevilleHewet were two sons Sir John and Robert and five daughters Elizabeth, Catharine, Frances, Anne, and Grace...
"It would appear from the above that William Buell of Windsor was of the Bevilles of Huntingdonshire and at the time of his emigration to America changed the orthography of his name to Buell, a very common thing in those days, as nearly all the emigrants fled from Religious persecution, which at that time (1630) was more particularly acrimonious and cruel than at any other period. He might have been a younger son of the Sir Robert Beville of Chesterton in Huntingdonshire. Another indication of consanguinuity lies in the 'given' name of William Buell's mother (Goode Buell), which was probably from Sir John Goode, the grandfather of Mrs Catharine Beville Hewet.
"Another evidence of relationship is found in the Windsor Records, which state that 'Ephriam Hewet and divers others came up from the bay (Massachusetts Bay) to Windsor to settle here 17 Aug 1639. He had been a Puritan Minister in Wraxall, near Kenilworth in Warwickshire and had been proceeded against by Archbishop Laud (the greatest persecutor of the Puritans) in 1638 for neglect of Ceremonies and emigrated to America in 1639 and landed at Boston MA. He also changed his name from Hewet to Huet (Huit), and was evidently one of the younger sons of the Hewet family mentioned above of Chestertown, Huntingdon- shire, and being a relative of William Buell (or Beville) of Windsor.
"This Ephriam Hewet or Huet on his arrival at Windsor became colleague with Rev Mr John Wareham or whom it is recorded that he preached at Windsor thirty-six years. That he came from England in 1630 and landed at Nantucket 30 May.the people who came with him were the emigrants who settled at Dorchester MA in the same year. A portion of these removed and settled at Windsor CT in 1635 and among them was William Buell.
"Rev John Wareham sailed from Plymouth England 30Mar 1630 in the ship 'Mary and John' and on his arrival at Windsor- then almost a wilderness- he was, with four others (viz Messrs Mason, Ludlow, Stoughton and Wolcott) appointed to superintend the Settlement of Windsor."
