Hello Judy...I am interested in your reply regarding my posting referring to the above
subject....While I study the info you sent, here is a couple urls that may interest you:
http://www.curtis-curtiss.com - - this has information on some Camp families and it has a
good section on Nazeing. Even shows a picture of a Camp home.
http://www.hemingway.net/rox.htm - this has information on Roxbury, Ma...and a bit about
Rev John Eliot. ....I have some other written data on him that I will try to locate
and send....His sister was Sarah Eliot who came to America with her husband William
Curtis...aboard the ship Lion/Lyon...arriving Sep 16 1632....they were accompanied by four
of their children. William, their eldest came over the year before with his uncle John
Eliot....
Some excerpts from a document about Roxbury, MA where the majority of
the passengers from the Lion/Lyon settled....The entire document is on the
web site....
Roxbury....
. . . The first mention of the town occurs in the records of the third
Court of Assistants, held Sept. 28, 1630 . . .
. . . In the year 1631 the ship "Lyon," . . . left the shores of
England with the first batch of Nazing pilgrims on board.
Eliot, the apostle, was there . . . They were ten weeks on the water . . . In the
summer of 1632 she once more left the Thames for Boston ****. . . . Early in
1633, John Graves, with his wife and five children, left their home for
the shores of New England . . .
****This is the trip where my William and Sarah (Eliot) Curtis came to America.
John Eliot
. . . Nazing, in Essex, England, has the distinction of being the
birthplace of the apostle. . . as England afforded small encouragement
at that day for a Puritan minister, he took passage in the "Lion," bound
for New England, arriving at Boston on Nov. 2, 1631. . .
Thank you for your reply....
