From Great Migration Begins: 'Abraham Mellowes and his family provide an early connection between two centers of Puritanism, both of which later made major contributions to the Great Migration. He presumably married Martha Bulkeley in the vicinity of Odell, Bedfordshire, and he was certainly residing there in 1609 when his son Edward was baptized there. By 1615 Abraham Mellowes was living at Boston, Lincolnshire, where he became a parishioner of Rev. John Cotton.'
