   LifeSketch: RESIDENCE: ENG; Leyden; Plymouth; IMMIGRATION: came on Ship Anne to Plymouth 1623 with wife and 4 children who were born in England IMMIGRATION: R.C.Anderson does not include him in The Great Migration Begins - must have come later than 1633 ? REF: Gen Guide to the Early Settlers of America says he emigrated to Dorchester NOTE: Fled England for Leyden in 1620 - came to Plymouth 1623. He lost his wife by death and remarried, and had another son, Joseph, who moved to CT BIRTH: Other source lists birthyear 1580 DEATH: Other source lists death year 1677 in Dorchester,Ma NOTES: From "Babcock Coat of Arms and Family Origins" by Tanya Babcock Poirier: "'Family tradition' has it that Wivenhoe lived born about 1580, a younger brother of Sir Richard, named James Badock, a clergyman of the Church of England, or Puritanical persuasion who became an exile in 1620 to Leyden, Holland, for the sake of religious liberty, and sail thence with others landed in New England some say Plymouth, Mass, in 1623, thus becoming the founder of the family in this country. Whatever doubt or denial there may be of the truth of this tradition arises presumably, in the first place because the tradition is entirely unsupported by documentary evidence. There are no passenger lists of ships arriving at Plymouth in 1623, or in 1624; no deeds or land apportionments, no mention of election or of appointment, to local civil or military offices or duties; no wills or other probate papers; no references in comtemporanneous literature in short, there is nothing in the shape of discovered records to show that James Badcock, aforsaid landed in 1623, as tradition relates, at Plymouth, or elsewhere in Massachusetts. On the contrary there are circumstances and also records, which tend to impair and for some minds to destroy the trustworthiness of said tradition. What those circumstances and facts of record are may easily be learned by reading the pages following in the body of this book, for it does not fall within the scope of this preface to relate, or to comment upon them. One remark however we may permit ourselves which is that there can be no slightest doubt that a man names James Badcock was living in the year 1642 at Portsmouth, RI." written by Rev. Charles Henry Babcock, D.D. New York July 1, 1903.
