John was christened April 8, 1593 at Moulton, Suffolk, England. He came from England to America as early as the Spring of 1633, and with his wife, Sarah Cox, settled in Roxbury in the Colony of the Massachusetts Bay. He had married Sarah on September 8, 1617 in England. To this union, 7 children were born, all dying at birth or soon after in England, except for the last born, Samuel. John took the oath of Fidelity to the government on the 5th of November 1634 at which time we find the honorable title of "Mr." prefixed to this name and the same distinction is given in most of the ancient manuscripts.
