==Early life== [[File:Coat of Arms of Jonathan Trumbull.svg|145px|thumb|left|Coat of Arms of Jonathan Trumbull]] Trumbull was born in [[Lebanon, Connecticut]], the son of Joseph Trumble (1678β1755) and his wife, Hannah Trumble (nΓ©e Higley), the daughter of John Higley and Hannah Drake. The patriarch of the Trumble family was the immigrant John Trumble (1612β1687), from [[Newcastle upon Tyne|Newcastle upon Tyne, Northumberland]], who was Joseph's grandfather. The original spelling of "Trumble" was later changed for an unknown reason. Jonathan graduated from [[Harvard University|Harvard College]] with a B.A. in 1727; for three years after graduation, he studied theology under the Reverend Solomon Williams at Lebanon and was licensed to preach at [[Colchester, Connecticut]]; this became a Master of Arts degree.
