Historical Notes | Genealogies and Biographies of Ancient Windsor https://archive.org/details/historygenealogi02stil/page/510/mode/2up MUNSELL (Mansel, Mansell, Monsell, Monsall, Moncil, Muncil, Maunsell, Munsel). The first mention of the name in connection with America, is that Sir Robert Mansell, with others, in 1610, signed a "letter of the King's Council for Virginia, "for sending out supplies of men and provisions from England to that colony, which then included New England. The next mention is that of Robert Mansell, who emigrated on the ship “Richard and Mary” for New England, 21 June, 1679. There was a Jno. Monsell at Charlestown, Mass., 1675, who left issue.
