	Edward Bosworth, along with his wife, Mary, left England in the spring of 1634, sailing from the port of Gravesend, near the mouth of the Thames, in the ship Elizabeth Dorcas. They had with them their sons, Benjamin and Nathaniel, possibly a son Edward, a daughter Mary and her husband, William Buckland, and there may have been younger children, but no record has been found.

	"It is evident that Edward having died and his wife being left a widow, she found it impossible having come into a new and strange land to sustain herself and family without assistance, for in Mass. Colony Records (Vol 1, p. 123) we find the following: "At a Court holden at Newe Towne (Cambridge) August 5, 1634, It was ordered that such moneyes as shalbe layde out for the maintenance of Widd. Bosworth and her famyly shalbe payde againe by the Treasurer." It is also noted in the record that Edward Bosworth had been loaned money by Mr. Henry Sewall for the passage of himself and family to America. The sons of Edward, Jonathan, Benjamin and Nathaniel are ordered to pay the debt. The sum amounted to twenty pounds or about $100.00.
