Relationship with William Wadsworth?
" Some secondary sources claim that Christopher Wadsworth came to New England in 1632 on the Lyon. This is based on a supposed relationship with William Wadsworth, who did come on that ship in 1632. Christopher Wadsworth is not on the passenger list for the Lyon in 1632, and there is no evidence that he was brother or any other relation of William, and, although he must have been in New England by 1632, he could have come earlier, so there is no basis for this claim."[1]
