The romantic story of the Mayflower pilgrims, and its place in the life of to-day
Addison, A. C. (Albert Christopher)
Mayflower (Ship); Pilgrims (New Plymouth Colony)
John Cook, son of Francis Cook by his wife, Esther, shipped in the
Mayflower with his father. He married Sarah, daughter of Richard Warren.
On account of religious differences he removed to Dartmouth, of which he
was one of the first purchasers. He became a Baptist minister there. He
was also Deputy in 1666-68, 1673, and 1681-83-86. The father and son
were both members of the Plymouth military company in 1643.
John Cook died at Dartmouth after 1694.
Humility Cooper returned to England, and died there.
John Crackston died in 1621; his son, John, who went out with him, died
in 1628.
Edward Dotey married Faith Clark, probably as second wife, and had nine
children, some of whom moved to New Jersey, Long Island, and elsewhere.
He was a purchaser of Dartmouth, but moved to Yarmouth, where he died
August 23, 1655. He made the passage out as a servant to Stephen
Hopkins, and was wild and headstrong in his youth, being a party to the
first duel fought in New England.
