1630 sailed with Governor John Winthrop on the ship Arbella (may have been in the fleet of several ships) from Salisbury (may be Cowes) on 29 March 1630, England, to Salem, MA arrived 14 June 1630. He was a salt maker who was granted 640 acres by King Charles I per Dr. Bang's book on the life of P.F. Bresee page 40.
FAQ: Was my ancestor aboard the Arbella? ANSWER: From Winthrop's journal, we know only that Gov. John Winthrop and Rev. George Phillips took passage aboard the Arbella. By other reliable sources, we think Sir Richard Saltonstall, William Hathorne, Rev. John Wilson and their families, and probably Increase Nowell and Thomas Dudley crossed the Atlantic in the Arbella as well. No mention of Robert Hibbard on the Winthrop Society web site www.winthropsociety.org.
1613 - See Carolyn Older Salk file. Christened 13 June 1613 St. Edmunds, Wilshire, England. Needs to be confirmed from church records. IGI has birth 13 Mar 1612/1613. The "Jesse Smith, his Ancestors and Descendants" by L. Bertrard Smith 1909 page 93 shows him baptized 13 March 1613.
