His parents died soon after their arrival in Plymouth. Samuel went to reside with this uncle, and Matthew remained with his friends in England till about the year 1640, when he came over. Though he was then nearly thirty years of age, probably a married man and a parent, yet he was accounted to be 'one of the first born of the Colony,' and had lands assigned in virtue of his right of primo-geniture."
