  • Notes 


    • Tristram Ciffin, Thomas Macy, and Christopher Hussey were among the ten "original purchasers" of Nantucket Island for 30 pounds and two beaver "Hatts"! Jane Godfrey's second was another-he brought her and her Bunker children to the island.

      When a young man he spent some time in Holland where he met Theodate, the eldest daughter of Rev. Stephen Bachelor, who he desired to marry. Her father gave his consent contingent on their going to America with him. They arrived in Boston in 1632 on the ship William and Francis, settling first in Lynn.

Ça correspond un peu à une association de famille au Québec, mais la société est consacrée à la préservation et à la documentation des lignées issues des premiers immigrants aux colonies anglaises ayant traversé l'Atlantique sur la flotte de Winthrop (et quelques autres immigrants). Plusieurs des ancêtres de John (Jean-Baptiste) Otis se trouvaient sur le William and Francis. Devenir membre de la société permet d'accéder à des ressources documentaires et de contribuer à enrichir sa collection.
