Samuel had come on the Mayflower at the age of 12, with his father Edward, one of the signers of the Compact. Both of his parents died in Plymouth during the first hard winter, so he was left to the care of an Uncle Dr. Samuel Fuller. Samuel was retiring in disposition, eminently pious, an honest man, a good neighbor and a Christian gentleman.
Jane come to this country in 1634 in the "Griffin" with her father, the Rev. John Lathrope, who was a clergyman in Kent, Eng. He had espoused the cause of the Independents and was taken prisoner under Archbishop Laud in 1632. His wife became ill and after much solicitation on his part he was permitted to go to her and give her his blessing before she died. This he did, promising to return to the prison. Sometime later, his children who were scattered and unprotected, interceded with the Bishop who liberated him on the condition that he would leave for America, which he gladly did. He took his entire parish with him. Here he lived for 50 years, first in Scituate, then in Barnstable where he died 8 Nov. 1653. "During his long pastorate in Barnstable it was said that "such was the influence over the people that the power of the civil magistrate was not needed to restrain crime and no pastor was ever more beloved.'"
