 John and Anthony Emery

John and Anthony, from Romsey England, departed on the ship "James" from Southampton England about the fifth of April, 1635. The ship carried a cargo of cattle and other passengers. They arrived in Boston and not long after in the year 1635 were among the original settlers of the new town of Newbury, MA. At the end of Cottage Street in Newbury is a marker commemorating the landing place of the original settlers of Newbury. Off of highway 1A in Newbury, past "The Green" on the west side of the road is the old "Burial Ground" which includes a headstone place there in recent times "In Memory Of" John Emery. I'm not sure if he is buried there or not. Next the the burying ground is "Emery Field" which I believe was one of the original Emery properties. I am hoping that I might be able to tie my Samuel Emery and perhaps a couple of the other Emry/Emery lines I have listed above into John or Anthony's lines.

Some of the information above was extracted from "History of Newbury Massechusetts 1635-1902" that I picked up from the Town Hall of Newbury for $20 (contact Town Clerk).
