Notes

!Occupation: Cooper !Immigrated to Plymouth in the Anne in 1623. (Beware: Another Robert Bartlett immigrated in the ship Lyon in 1632. That one married an Anna (---) and settled in Cambridge, Mass.) From 1633, juryman and town officer. He died in 1676 and bequeathed his entire estate to his wife. He was in on the first purchase of Dartmouth. The earliest reference showing his marriage to Mary Warren was in a Court Order dated 7/17 Mar 1636/7, reading as follows: "It is agreed upon by the consent of the whole Court that Elizabeth Warren Widdow the relict of mr. Richard Warren Deceased ...her sonnes in law Richard Church Robert Bartlett and Thomas Little in marriage wth their wives her daughters" [Court Orders, I:107, MD 3:48]. The marriage did not occur until after 1 Jun 1627 (Gregorian=new style). Since his oldest son, Benjamin, was admitted a freeman on 16 June 1654, he was thus born before 16 June 1633. Assuming his daughter Rebecca was 16 years old when married on 30 Dec 1649, she would have been born before 1633. Thus, it is likely that they were married as early as 1629.
