• Notes

  He arrived in 1636; first at Boston, then Taunton. The death date given here reflects the fact that he must have been dead when his widow Margery married Henry Withington. But according to his Wikitree page, he must have actually died before 17 May 1654, because "in the will of Elizabeth Pole on that date she refers to her 'kind and old friend sister Margery Paule, widow'."
