General Notes: Husband - Richard Robbins


He came from England in 1630, having voluntarily expatrated himself for political reasons, his activity in opposition to the restoration of the monarchy being so pronounced that in order to ensure personal safety he deemed it wise to come under an assumed name and in the guise of a servant. He settled in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he became active in public affairs.

He came from Hedingworth, England, in 1630, under an assumed name and in the guise of a servant, caused by his activity in opposition to King Charles I. He settled in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and later moved to Boston.
