General Notes

Joan Antrobus' children were all baptized in St. Albans, Hertfordshire, England and came to America on the ship "Planter". (I didn't know of her mother Joan Antrobuss being on the ship also.) John and William migrated to Queens County, NY and some say were joined by a brother Thomas others say Thomas was the son of William. John and William migrated to Queens County, NY and some say were joined by a brother Thomas others say Thomas was the son of William.

There was another William Lawrence in Queens County at this time whose family migrated to Monmouth County,New Jersey. The Lawrence 's who came on the ship Planter were the St. Albans Lawrence 's. There was also a Henry Lawrence in MA who was an original immigrant not connected to the St. Albans Lawrence 's. Also a George Lawrence in MA. A John Lawrence from Wisset, England. A Robert Lawrence in Virginia of Ashton Hall, England. Numerous "Laurens" whose name
transposed to Lawrence over the years and a Johannes Lorentz from Germany whose descendants changed there names to Lowrance and Lawrence .There are quite a few more who could be original immigrants and not connected to any of the above.

In was in the year 1635 that the first of the Lawrence s came to America. Although most Lawrence histories talk about 'two brothers' who arrived to settle in the Plymouth area, it was actually an entire family. Boarding the "Planter" in England, Joan Tuttle (nee Antrobus) with her second husband, John
Tuttel of Ireland, came to the United States with her three Lawrence children by her first husband, and her three Tuttle children. They were Jo: Tuttell, a mercer, age 39, Joan Tuttell, age 42, John Lawrence age 17, William Lawrence age 12, Marie Lawrence age 9, Abigall Tuttell, age 6, Symon Tuttell age 4, and Jo: Tuttell, age 1. Some say she was widowed and had married a Thomas Tuttell,
but the ship's record give his true name as John Tuttell. Also accompanying them was Joan Antrobuss, age 65, evidently, Joan's (ae 42) widowed mother.

Joan ANTROBUS was born before Jun 25 1592 in St Albans, Hertfordshire, England.  She was christened on Jun 25 1592 in Saint Albans, Hertfordshire, EN.8  She died in 1659 in MA.  She died on Jan 29 1661 in Ireland.9  Approximately 67 years at death according to Crocker.  This is inconsistent with a 1592 birth date and a 1661 death date. _

Jane    Antrobus.  Thomas and Joan (Anterbus) Lawrence had the following
children; Joan, Jane,   John,William, Marie (or Mary) and Thomas. After the
death of Thomas Lawrence , his   widow Joan married John Tuttell (Sometimes
written Tuttle and sometimes Tuthill). Tuttell  was a widower, and had four
children: Abigail, Symon, Sara, and John.  John Tuttell was     a Mercer (a
dealer in silk, etc.).
     John and Joan Tuttell, with all four of their children, and with three
of hers, John, William and Marie (Thomas seems to have come later), also
Joan's mother; were listed on April 2nd 1635, as sailing for America on the
ship "Planter, Richolas Trarice, Master, and which landed at Plymouth,
Mass., some weeks later.  This family came from great St.Albans, England.
