Notes:
The Freemans (and Clarkes) set sail from Yarmouth, Isle of Wright, on 8 Apr 1630. They were aboard the "Arbella", flagship of the 11 ship Winthrop Fleet and the first ship to depart Yarmouth. They were part of the "landed gentry class" and found the 2 month journey hard in unsanitary, cramped quarters, with meager food and no bathing or washing of clothes. They arrived at Salem on 12 Jun 1630.
When William Clarke became enamored with Apphia Quicke is not known, but it culminated in a court decree that William would keep his distance from Mrs. Freeman, his sister-in-law. (A modern day restraining order). The court fined him and stated that ".. there is a strong suspicion of incontinency (lacking sexual constraint/unchaste)."
