• Notes

  However, we know that she married William Palmer, though no record of this marriage has been found. Nevertheless, most compilers have accepted Frances as William's wife. Banks has stated "she was much younger than William". They shipped off separately, to some extent. William Palmer Sr. sailed on the "Fortune", the second ship after the "Mayflower", and arrived at Cape Cod on 19 November 1621. With him were William Palmer Jr. (8) and a servant, William Carvanyell. His wife, Frances , would later go alone on the ship "Anne" in 1623. Frances had just arrived on the "Anne", in 1623, when a division of land at Plymouth was made. One share was granted to William Palmer for himself and one for his servant, and Frances received one share. Due to his son being only ten years old, he did not qualify for a share (Planters Agreement with the Merchant Adventurers of London). Many genealogists agree that Sarah Palmer married Henry Rowley at a very early age, "thereby incurring the wrath of her father". Sarah and Henry, along with their children (Sarah Jr., Joseph, and Moses), most likely sailed on the Mayflower II, in 1629. Frances Blossom was born in England, in 1591. She married William Palmer in Massachusetts. They had 12 children in 19 years. She died in 1635 in Duxbury, Massachusetts, at the age of 44.
