Family Migrations XV

As I continue on with the family migration, it's time to look at the French, Howlett and Peabody families.

French: Born in County Essex, Thomas French married in Suffolk [1608] and sailed for America in 1638. Most of his children had already settled in Massachusetts Bay at Ipswich. Thomas Jr. sailed with the Winthrop Fleet in 1630 and daughters Alice, Susan and Dorcas arrived by 1633. Alice married Thomas Howlett. England, Massachusetts

Howlett:  Thomas Howlett sailed from England with the Winthrop Fleet. He settled at Ipswich in the Massachusetts Bay colony. Thomas Jr. resided at Ipswich and Boxford, where he married Lydia Peabody and daughter Mary wed Thomas Hazen. The Hazens moved to Connecticut. England, Massachusetts, Connecticut

Peabody:  Two direct line generations of Peabody males called Plymouth or the Bay colony home. John left England for Plymouth in 1636. Son Francis preceded his father by a year and settled in Ipswich, then Norfolk Co., which became Rockingham Co., New Hampshire. From there Francis settled at Topsfield, Massachusetts. Daughter Lydia married Thomas Howlett Jr. and died at Boxford, Massachusetts. England, Massachusetts, Mass,/New Hampshire, Massachusetts
