  • Notes 
    • NOTE: He is not the same as John Pierce of Dorchester, Massachusetts
      ——
      He emigrated, apparently first in 1634 with his older children (supposedly Anthony, Esther, Mary, Robert), then again 8 June 1637 -- on either the John & Dorothy or the Rose -- with his wife, Elizabeth, and younger children (John, Barbara, Elizabeth, Judith).
