William Titcomb's Arrival in New England

Cutter (or more likely one of his contributors) says that William came on the Hercules in 1634.[1] Smith and Sanborn indicate that while he had initially been cleared to come on the Mary and John, he, with others, was left behind to to oversee the cattle which were to be sent on the Hercules.[2] Robert Charles Anderson did not include a sketch of William in The Great Migration series, indicating that he found no evidence of William's having arrived prior to the end of 1635 and, in fact, in the sketch of Thomas Tredwell, (Vol. 7, p. 96), he indicates that William first appeared here at Newbury in 1639.
