Book Description

Robert Cushman was probably the Robert Cutchman born in 1577 in Rovenden, Kent, England, to Thomas Cutchman. Robert married Sara Reder in 1606 in St. Alphege, Canterbury, England. After the birth of their son Thomas in 1607, the family apparently moved to Holland. His wife Sara and two children died there in 1616. In 1617, Robert married his second wife Mary (Clarke) Singelton, widow of Thomas Singelton of Sandwich, Kent, England. Later in 1617, Robert was asked to go with John Carver to England to negotiate with the Council for Vvirginia about a patent within the grant of the Virginia Company. Robert and his son Thomas arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621. His second wife never came to New England and was probably dead by this date. A month after they arrived, Robert left his son in the care of Governor Bradford while he returned to England. He plead the colonists' case and was engaged in the affairs of the colony until he died in England in 1625.

Book Description

"The Pilgrim Migration in the 1620s to Plymouth Colony was the opening episode of the Great Migration to New England of the 1620s and 1630s. Separatists - Puritans opposed to the English church - first moved to Holland from England and then to Plymouth Colony, in what is now Massachusetts. In this one volume, Robert Charles Anderson tells the story of the Pilgrim Migration by relating the story of each family or individual known to have resided in Plymouth Colony between 1620 (when the Mayflower arrived) and 1633. Each of the more than two hundred sketches provides information on the early histories of these immigrants as well as their New World experiences. This material is followed by complete genealogical accounts, including all marriages and children of the immigrants"--Back cover
