  • Notes 
    • John came in 1664 after long concealment in Europe or elsewhere, flying from prosecution as one of the regicides. It is supposed his first quiet residence was at Hadley, with Goffe and Whalley, under shelter of Reverend John Russell, though the length of time is unknown. At New Haven he was called by himself and others, James Davids. His concealment was perfect, but his real name was known to one or more of the chief people and confessed by himself shortly before his death. [1]
