This is just a bit of interesting trivia I came across in some of my research
& will pass it along for the 5-Richard members who descend from Mary Bedant
Robbins. Our ancestor Wm Bassett son of Roger & Ann Holland Bassett of County
Surrey, England & progenitor of the Lynn, MA & Salem Co., NJ Bassett family
was a passenger on the ship Abigail in 1635 with the family of our Wm &
Frances Potter.
