Notes
- Phineas came to Damariscore in the SPARROW in 1622. Phineas Pratt was one of Thomas Weston's men at Wessaguset and moved to Plymouth when that colony broke up. He arrived in Plymouth in 1623 and was allotted land as if he had come in the ANNE. Shortly after the FORTUNE arrived at Plymouth in 1621, a shallop from the ship SPARROW, which ad arrive in Damaris Cove. In this little vessel were ten men, who came to select a site for another plantation; Phineas Pratt was one of them, Joshua Pratt, probably the brother pf Phineas, and like him, unmarried, arrived at Plymouth in the Anne in the summer of 1623. Most of those who came in thes ship and in the LITTLE JAMES were friends and relatives of the Plymouth settlers. During the year 1623 there was a division of the land at Plymouth, under three groups: those who came in the MAYFOLOWER, those who came in the FORTUNE, and those who came in the ANNE. As part of the last group, Phineas and Joshua received two acres. Since Phineas did not come by any of those vessels, the probability is that he was the brother of Joshua and put with that group to make the division complete. In 1624 the settlers of Plymouth were divided into twelve companies of thirteen persons each. Joshua and Phineas were assigned to Francis Cooke. Phineas married Mary Priest , and moved from Plymouth to Charlestown somtime between 17 Sep., 1646 and 20 May, 1648 when he bought a house and garden in Charleston. *Reference: "Ancestors and Descendants of Minnie Hale Gorton" by Carolyn C.
