What is known abt Nicholas Goodhue, b. 1575, England, Father to William Goodhue
I have found references to a Nicholas Goodhue who was born in 1575. Possibly in Kent County, England. He was the father of William Goodhue who was born in 1612 in Kent County, England. William Goodhue later married Margery Watson in Kent County, England in 1634. Together they immigrated from England in the late Fall of 1635 or 1636 to Ipswich, MA where they arrived about the late Winter of 1636/1637 to settle.
One family's genealogical reference suggests that William's father, Nicholas, might have been buried in Ipswich, MA, but indicates the year of death as 1635 which pre-dates William Goodhue's arrival in the Bay State Colony. Also, there is no mention of whether William had any siblings although his father would have been 37 at the time of his birth and his mother, Jane, would have been 35.
Does anyone else have any better genealogical data on Nicholas Goodhue who supposedly was the father of William Goodhue and the father-in-law of Margery Watson? Also, Nicholas Goodhue was married to a Jane Goodhue (maiden name: UNKNOWN) who allegedly was born in 1577 in England. No more information is available about her.
I am interested in tracing back the British ancestors of William Goodhue, beginning with his father, Nicholas Goodhue (if in fact this is correct) and going back from there as much as possible
I also found references which suggest that Margery Watson was born in 1617 Depford, Kent County, England and that her father was a Joseph Watson who was born about 1591 in England. It is assumed that he remained in England where he eventually died.
Any assistance with the genealogy of the British ancestors of William Goodhue and Margery Watson in England would be greatly appreciated.
