Born: September 9, 1711, Boston Died June 3, 1780, London. American colonial merchant and politician. Royal Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Member of the Massachusetts Bay Colony Assembly from 1737 to 1749, member of the Massachusetts Bay Colony Council from 1749 to 1766, Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Bay Colony from 1760 to 1769, Lieutenant Governor from 1758 to 1771, and Governor from 1771 to 1774. He was dissatisfied with the British government's policy toward the colonies, but acted as a representative of the British government, which earned him the resentment of the colonists. During the Stamp Act Rebellion in 1765, he was considered the mastermind behind the law's creation, and a mob attacked his house. This, along with the attack on the house of his brother-in-law, Stamp Salesman A. Oliver, is called the "Hutchinson Rebellion." After the Boston Tea Party, military rule was established in Massachusetts, and Hutchinson replaced General T. Gage as governor and headed to London. In London, he became an advisor to the King on the implementation of American policy and conducted propaganda activities against the revolutionaries. In 1779 Hutchinson's estates in Boston and Milton Hill, valued at £100,000, were confiscated by the revolutionaries, and he died in London the following year. Hutchinson |
