Hewlet Family Crest, Coat of Arms and Name History

Meaning, Origin, Etymology

The Hulet surname is derived from the personal name of ‘Hugh’ and ‘Hugh-el-ot’, the last two elements of Hugh-el-ot being typical of the medieval period endings of names.  ‘Hugh’ was introduced into Britain by the Normans when they came as the form of ‘Hugo’ which is derived from the Old German ‘hug’ meaning ‘heart’, ‘mind’ or ‘spirit’ and was recorded in 1086 in the Domesday Book as ‘Hugo’, in Huntingdonshire and in Suffolk.  Hulet is derived from a French word which is “Mount” in English but translated into the Walloon language. In Walloon Belgium there is a little mount between Genappe and Nivelles, which in the past was called a “ Huwelencourt”, but now it is called “Hulencourt.”   The ancestors of the Hulet family came to England following the Norman Conquest of 1066 and is based on the Norman personal name of Hugh. When a son of Hugh was baptised their baptismal name became Howlett. The name and it’s various forms gained much popularity after the 14th century because of St. Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln.  The first recorded spelling of Hulet is recorded in the records of Bec Abbey in Norfolk in 1248, during the reign of King Henry III (1216-1272) and the records indicate a Agnes Hughelot.

History, Genealogy & Ancestry
HEWLETT FAMILY
Crest – An owl’s head erased and affronted arg; ducally gorged or.   “Family tradition states that “George Hewlett. the first of his name in America, was a judge of the Court under Cromwell’s Commonwealth who refused allegiance to Charles II, and fled to America with his four sons, Daniel, George, Lewis and John.  They settled at Merrick, on the south side of Long Island where Daniel, the eldest son, succeeded to the homestead and left five sons and three daughters. George settled on Great Neck, Long Isalnd and left three sons and five daughters, and John settled at Rockaway and left two sons and four daughters, and from this John are descended all the Hewletts of Long Island.  Another tradition recites that “George Hewlett came to Long Island with his brothers John and Lewis, and settled on Riker’s Island, but were driven away by the Indians to Long Island, where, excepting George all died without issue.” Thompson’s Long Island states he “married the widow of Guisbert Riker,” but of this we can find no proof. There were many Hewletts in the New England Colonies at any early period.  One Thomas went to Ispwich, Mass., with John Winthrop, Jr. in 1633. (Shurtliff’s Mass. Hist. Reeds. pg 103) Another, one William, came to Virginia in 1635, from London. (Hotton’s Original Lists.) In 1664 Gov. Wm. Coddington came from Rhode Island to Monouth County New Jersey bringing with him George Hulate, “then in his employ.” Gov. Coddington returned to Rhode Island and Hulate became one of the early settlers of Monmouth County, New Jersey.  In 1675 warrants were issued to proprietors for the location of their lands, and George Hewlett and his wife’s share was 240 acres. (Salter’s Monmouth Co.) Austin’s Gene. Dictionary of Rhode Island states that his wife was Mary, born 1647 the daughter of Robert Taylor of Rhode Island. The New Jersey Archives, Vol. 1 pg. 51 name him on 27 Feb, 1667 as then living in Navesink. By one account he had a daughter Elizabeth who in 1694 married George Allen of Shrewsbury.  We cannot identify him as the first George Hewlett of Long Island but believe him to be a near relative. An early Louis Hewlett came to New Amsterdam from Buckinghamshire, Eng. In 1644 he was ordered by the Dutch to prove that one Jas. Bier was his servant. On 15 Aug 1646 he married Helena Appelgate, widow of Thos. Farrington. This was his 2nd wife. He married 3rd 1648 Marwyn of Eng and had issue Jane who married Adam Mott; John Lewis and George, the latter of whom by the same authority is identified as the first George Hewlett of Hempstead, Long Island who married Mary Bayles.    Jenne Hulet of Buckingham, Eng (prob. daughter of Louis Hulet named above) married 28 July 1647, Adam Maet (Mott) of Essex, England.  George Hewlet of Hempstead, Long Island ancestor the Long Island Hewletts born 1634 died 1722 married 1680, Mary born 1654 died 1733 daughter of John and Rebecca Bayles of Jamaica, Long Island.  She is name in her father’s will dated 18 Oct 1682. He and his wife Mary were buried in the “Old Town Burying Ground” at Hempstead. He first appears in the Hempstead Reeds in 1657 and after held various local offices.  In 1715 he was in Capt. Joshua Cornells Co. of Foot in Queens County. They had issue 1) George died about 1770 married Hannah Smith 2) John died 1717 married Mary Smith 3) Mary died 1744 married Dr. Chas.

“An uncle of Deacon Battis, E.A. Jameson, and his friend James Hulett, started for this lake, with a rifle, axe and fish tackle, to spend a time in trouting.  They erected a cabin on the bank of this lake, by putting down posts and rafters, sloping it down to the bank.  They covered it with large strips of hemlock bark, and wove boughs of hemlock into the sides, and made a bed of boughs.  They then made a pile of dry logs in front, to set on fire in the night. After catching fish for their breakfast, they set the log heap on fire and went into their cabin.  Mr. Jameson lay down with his rifle by his side, and was soon sound asleep. Mr. Hulett, with his axe by his side, could not sleep.  He was not used to sleep with bears and catamounts for his neighbors.  In the dead of the night, he heard stealthy steps near the eaves of the shanty.  Soon a huge panther jumped on the roof of the cabin, making the rude structure tremble. ‘Jameson! Jameson! cried Hulett, ‘what on earth is on our cabin?’  Looking up coolly, ‘ Bark,’ he said.  ‘Bark? there is something as heavy as you are just leaped on the roof.’  ‘I guess you have been dreaming.’ ‘I have not been asleep, nor shall I ever be unless it is the final sleep.’ ‘Please be quiet that I may sleep, so as to enjoy the morrow,’ and lay down for it.  While they talked Mr. Panther listened. When all was still he crawled up, and put one huge paw on the top plate. Jameson sprang up, rifle in hand. ‘Goodness!’ said he, ‘it is a huge panther’s claw.’  Hulett was raising his axe in great excitement.  ‘Keep still, keep still!’ said Jameson. While they talked the panther did not move, but as soon as silence reigned, the panther showed he meant business by putting up the other paw, and showing a huge, ugly head.  ‘Keep still, Hulett.’   The light was brilliant, but the panther could not see his game until he brought his head over so that the light made his eyes look like balls of fire.  Hulett could not be held back longer.  He rushed forward with his axe and yelled as loud as he could, ‘Yah! catte, yah!’  The panther leaped to the ground, and with a farewell scream went into the woods; and the two hunters went to stirring up the fire and watching the trees till daylight, and soon left the lake for home, and told the tragic tale.  As they were men of truth no one doubted their veracity. “ ~ Source: The Story of A Pilgrim Family from the Mayflower to the Present Time; with Autobiography, Recollections, Letters, Incidents, and Genealogy of the Author, Rev.

Rev. George Tyler Hewlett

Rev. George Tyler Hewlett lived at Bristol, England. (II) George Tyler (2), son of Rev. George Tyler (1) Hewlett, came from Bristol. England, in 1857, and settled at New Haven, Connecticut. He married Mary Ann, daughter of Rev. William Bartlett Staddan. of Bristol, England. (Ill) Major George Tyler (3), son of George Tyler (2) Hewlett, was born at New Haven, September ig, 1861. He attended the public schools of his native city. He began his business career as a boy in the employ of Sargeant & Company of New Haven, and for a few years he was with a New York importing house. Since 1883 he has been employed by the board of education and has been its secretary since 1902. He is well known in military circles. lie became a member of the Second Company, Governor’s Foot Guard, May, 1895, and successively attained the rank of corporal, sergeant, fourth, third, second arid first lieutenant, and captain of that ancient and celebrated organization. He was commissioned major in August, 1909. A magnificent military ball in honor of Major Hewlett was given in the armory early in the winter fol lowing. The Governor’s Foot Guard was called into being by the imminence of civil war. Sixty-five gentlemen ”of influence and respectability met at New Haven” December 28, 1774, and signed article of agreement to form the company, meeting thereafter every week and drilling faithfully. A uniform was adopted February 2, 1775, and the Governor’s Second Company of Guards was chartered by the Colonial Assembly, March 2, 1775, being the second corps chartered in Connecticut, and the third in the United States. Benedict Arnold, the same Benedict of infamous memory in later years, was the first captain. When the Lexington alarm came, the company voted to march to Cambridge and offer its services to the patriots’ cause. Rev. Jonathan Edwards addressed the company and a large throng of citizens on the day the company marched away. Captain Arnold had to threaten to use force before the selectmen of the town would deliver the keys of the powder house and allow his men to provide themselves with powder. The people of New Haven were not all of one mind respecting the war. At Cam bridge, Massachusetts, the company was quartered in the fine old mansion of Lieutenant- Governor Oliver, who was a Loyalist, and it being the only company in the American army in uniform, it was assigned to special duties which to the soldier’s eye required a uniform. Arnold was nominally captain until May, 1777. when he was promoted to colonel and later to general. A dozen men from the Guards joined Arnold’s ill-starred expedition against Quebec. Hezekiah Smith succeeded Arnold as captain. The company returned to New Haven and thereafter took orders direct from the governor. During all the history of the organization it has been made up in membership from the most substantial citizens, merchants, manufacturers and professional men, and it has had a long list of distinguished men as officers. In 1809 the Second Company of Governor’s Horse Guard was organized, and since then the older company has been designated as the Foot Guard. The charter was amended in October, 1809, to permit the enlistment of one hundred and eighteen instead of sixty-five men, and making the officers comprise eight corporals, eight sergeants, four lieutenants and a captain. The company was active in the war of 18 12, doing good service during the riots and on the alarm of 1814. It enlisted as Company K, Sixth Connecticut Regiment, in the war of 1861-65, and also enlisted for the Spanish-American war of 1898, but was not mustered into service. Major Hewlett married. December 12, 1883, Nettie Laura Wilson, born November 2, i860, died November 8, 1894, daughter of Granville Wilson, of Fairhaven, Connecticut. Children : George Wilson, born November 27, 1885 ; Samuel Tyler. August 6, 1887 ; Horace Barnes, June 27, 1889; William Staddan. July 10. 1891. The family resides at 443 Edge- wood avenue, New Haven.
