Notes:

A very authoritative treatment of george Phelps can be found in the "Puritan Great Migration Project" at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Phelps-76

The birthplace in England of George Phelps is not known. It has been claimed that he arrived in 1630 on the "Mary and John", but as the first record of him in Dorchester was May 1635 it is more likely that he did not arrive on the "Mary and John". Possibly he is the passenger George P. who arrived on the "Recovery" in 1634.

He was with the group which moved to Windsor with Rev. John Warham.

He married first by 1638 to Philura Randall, the daughter of Phlip Randall, with whom he had 5 children. Philura died 29 Apr 1638 in Windsor.

On 2 Nov 1648 he married the widow of Thomas Dewey, Frances whose maiden name is unknown, with whom he had 3 additional children.

George Phelps died in Westfield 8 May 1687.

George Phelps appears in the "Great Migration Begins: Series" and all the above information is from that source.

The Phelps Family DNA site at http://www.phelpsdna.com/ has determined that Williams Phelps and George Phelps not only are not brothers as was previously assumed, but are not biologically related in genealogical time.

George married Phillury Randall in 1637 in Connecticut, USA. Phillury (daughter of Philip Randall and Joane Fush) was born in 1617 in England; died on 29 Apr 1648 in Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

• Name: Philip Randall
• Reference Number: 2647

Notes:

We are uncertain if the record of a marriage between Phillippe Randole and Joann Fush in Allington, Dorset, England refers to this Philip Randall. Many online genealogies show Frances Randall as the daughter of Philip. She allegedly married 1) Joseph Clark 2) Thomas Dewey and 3) George Phelps. We have been unable to confirm this through the Dewey Family History, as Thomas Dewey's wifes maiden name is not mentioned.

Philip Randall in his will mentions the children of his dau Phillury and George Phelps, but he does not mention the children of Frances and Thomas Dewey. That would tend to imply that the Frances who married Thomas Dewey was not his daughter.

Also, Clarence Torrey in the NYGBR 59:214-215 shows that The wife of Joseph Clark died before he did. And that the widow Frances Clark who married Thomas Dewey was not previously married to Joseph Clark, her first husband being unknown.

Philip married Joane Fush on 10 Apr 1608 in Dorset, England. Joane was born in 1578 in England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

John Porter was baptized at Felstead, Essex, England 21 Jun 1594 the son of John Porter and Sybyl Vessey. (TAG:18P56-60)

He married Anna White, dau of Robert White of Shalford and Bridget Allgar of Messing, in Messing on 18 Oct 1620. She was baptized at Shalford 13 Jul 1600. (TAG:18P56-60)

I see different dates for his entry into New England in various on-line genealogies. The problem being that there were three different John Porter immigrants into New England in these early years. Records of one are being confused with another. Our John Porter arrived in New England in late 1638 or early 1639 and immediately settled at Windsor. He died 21 Apr 1649 at Windsor. His wife Anna had died 21 Apr 1648 also in Windsor. (TAG16:P49-53)

John Porter and Anna White have many descendants, including Marlon Brando, John Brown (The Abolitionist), Anthony Perkins, William Williams (signor of the Declaration of Independence) and three U.S. Presidents, Grover Cleveland, Ulysses Grant and Gerald Ford.

John married Anna White on 18 Oct 1620 in Messing, Essex, England. Anna (daughter of Robert White and Bridget Allgar) was born on 13 Jul 1600 in Shalford, Essex, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
