    Immigratn 1621  [1
    • Robert Hicks came to the US aboard the 'Fortune.'
    Note
    • "Although some writers credit Robert Hicks with two wives, no burial of a first wife was found in Bermondsey, and I do not know of any evidence that would prove he had any wife other that Margaret."

      "As far as the other purported children of Robert Hicks are concerned, it should be noted that they are not named in the wills of Robert or Margaret and were not with them during the 1623-1627 period. It appears that John and Richard died before 1623. It should also be noted that Robert Hicks calls Samuel his eldest son."
