| Notes for William (Spouse 1) |
It is supposed that William came to America with his brother John on the second voyage to the New World in 1628. William "was the first settler on the Beverly side, having built in 1630 near what is now called Woodbury's point. (ie: Lynch Park - Beverly, MA.) He joined the church in 1639 and was admitted Freeman 2 Jun 1641. His wife joined the church in 1640. His will was dated 1 Apr 1663 and proved 26 Apr 1677."

| Research |
The "Search for the Passengers of the Mary & John 1630" Vol. 18, 1992, Part 2, p. 159 specifically states:
"In Supplement to Note of of Joseph Hadley. by Justin P. Kellog, 1899 (p. 13) the author says the vicar of South Pertherton informed him that the parish registers begin in 1574 but he could find no Woodbury entries prior to the marriage of William in 1616/17, so this was not the home of the Woodbury family." |
