They lived in Drayton for awhile with their two oldest sons before immigrating to Salem, Mass. in 1639. They later moved to Wenham and to Lancaster. They were the parents of nine known children. Five children were born in England, the rest in Massachusetts. One son, Thomas, settled in Wenham, and another son, Josiah, in his estate in Lancaster.
