Individual Notes
• [He arrived] in the spring of 1635, at the age of 21, on the ship Elizabeth and Ann. In 1639 he was granted the right to erect and operate the first grist mill in Duxbury, Plymouth Colony. In 1647/8, he sold the mill and with his family of wife (Esther) and three children (William, Esther and Mary), removed to Hingham, Plymouth Colony. The children married in Hingham, where the two daughters remained, but the son, William, removed to Little Compton, RI after King Philip’s War. [2500, Home page]
