  • Notes 
    • On 19 Nov 1662 he was one of 29 Quakers who were indicted "for unlawfully assembling together at the house of John Dove in Coddington [Cheshire] upon Pretence of joining together in religious worship of God" and found guilty by a jury, to be fined £2 10s.

      On 3 Mar 1682 he acquired from William Penn a grant of one thousand acres to be surveyed by him after his arrival in Pennsylvania. He arrived in Pennsylvania with his wife Mary and his children Isaac, Thomas, Jonathan, Phebe, Mary, and Martha, on the Endeavor, on 29 July 1683. It has been suggested that he may have also arrived a year early, in 1682, with his children Rachel and Josiah.
