Hello to all, Having started looking into the Spencers in more depth, I am wondering why brother John was left out of the group. SOTGM talks about the FOUR brothers and their sister coming to Massachusetts Bay. There was a John in Ipswich in 1634 and he was there until 1636. Who was that John and was he the left out brother? SOTGM has a John listed as born in 1604 and brother to the others on page 54. I can't find further mention of him. Also it mentions the land Gerard owned in Lynn and didn't sell until 1679 as being close to the Salem line. Having done some research in Salem I know that the line between Lynn and Salem can get "foggy" sometimes. There was much traffic between Ipswich and Salem at the time. Could John have lived on his brother's land after he went to CT? Whatever did happen to poor John? I wonder if we should check with Perley in Salem on this since at the time of the land sale it is described as being in Salem. Gail
