Notes

!Birth-Marriage: Hills "Planters" II:64. !Immigration: On the Anne, 1623, with wife Tryphosa and a child. He followed the dissenters to Leyden, probably coming frm the locality of Great Yarmouth, England, since he returned there. While in Leyden he was recorded as "Sayworker" from England. In March, 1652, Stephen Tracy, Francis Cooke and others acquired a large tract of land to the west, later called Dartmouth. These two men had one share each in the venture. For some reason about this time Stephen decided to leave the country. He returned to England before 1654, and signed a power of attorney in London directing his "loving friend" John Winslow of Plymouth to dispose of his property and divide it among his five children.
