Ralph came to America 1635 with his son John, the ships list for the "Phillip" show a Thomas Gorham age 19 and John age 18, weather or not these were his sons i do not know. His son John was baptized 1620, so they most likely were his children. I assume he was on the same boat. there is never a mention of a wife in America, so again I assume she died in England, probably in the late 1620's or 1630's 637. In 1638 he was referred to as 'Ralph the elder' indicating he had a son named Ralph as well. However only his son John had his birth recorded and John was the only one mentioned in the records of Plymouth. Ralph is mentioned in 1642 but he was not on a any latter records. As he was sixty seven years old, he probably died about 1643, His son John inherited his plantation.--------------------------------------------------------. came, with s. John, and prob.
