There is controversy as to the father of Henry (1), and as to whether
Henry
was born in England. Some contend that William of Newport, who may have
been on the ship "DORSET" from England in 1635 was the father. William
had
brothers John and Thomas, and possibly Richard. Their father, believed
by
some to be William Solomon CASE, may have died on the ship "DORSET".
William was known to have three sons, William, Joseph, and James. Thomas
was a Quaker preacher / teacher, had no children, and left his estate to
William's son William. There was another William CASE in Edgartown and a
John CASE in Tisbury (both Martha's Vineyard) at the same time. No son
Henry
has been verified for any of the above. John CASE once testified in
Hartford, CT court in 1655 to support Henry's request for release from
servitude to John Knott.
Barb, you have just about summed up the information for CASE origins in
New
England! Are you aware that the above is derived from my genealogy file
and
web page -- a note for "father Case" of Henry Case?
