Biography
John BENJAMIN, wife Abigail Eddy Benjamin & family arrived Boston Harbor Sunday evening, 16 SEP 1632, after a 12 week voyage aboard the ' Lion' from Plymouth, England. His voyage to the New World may have been induced by the fact that his friend, Governor WINTHROP, had preceded him by two years and that his wife had two brothers already in Massachusetts.
