     George HUBBARD was an early settler in Hartford, and had six sons, Joseph, Daniel, Samuel, George, Nathaniel, and Richard. The two oldest sons settled in Middletown. This George HUBBARD was a distinct person from the George HUBBARD who resided in Wethersfield, Milford and Guilford. The genealogies of their families show this.
     Thomas HUBBARD, who became a settler and proprietor in Middletown, is supposed t have come from Wethersfield, as there was an inhabitant early there of that name. He died in 1671, and whether he was related or not to either of the George HUBBARDS just mentioned is not known.
