HECTOR. No information is available about this ship ex- cept that she arrived sometime in May.I
'Divers of the ships this spring out of the Downs came in five weeks,' but no information is available as to names of the vessels or passengers.2
A ship arrived November 10, from London, 'Full of Passengers, men, women and children.' 3
. On November 17, two ships arrived from London, names unknown, 'full of passengers.' One of them had been twenty-six weeks from the Thames, and eighteen weeks from land to land. 'Their beer all spent and leaked out a month before their arrival, so as they were forced to stinking water (and that very little) mixed with sack or vine- gar, and their other provisions very short and bad. Yet, through the great providence of the Lord, they came safe on shore, and most of them sound and well liking. One of the ships was overset in the night by a sudden gust, and lay so for half an hour, yet righted herself.' 4

Governor Winthrop had ceased to record the separate arrivals of passenger ships and lumped them all together. About September I he made the following record: 'There came over this summer twenty ships, and at least three thou- sand persons, so as they were forced to look out new planta- tions. One was begun at Merrimack, and another four or five miles above Concord, and another at Winicowett.' I This last named place became later Hampton, New Hamp- shire.2 Of these twenty ships not half are known by name, but the following have been identified as coming this year: CASTLE

NEPTUNE of Bristol was licensed to carry one hundred and twenty-five passengers to New England.1
FELLOWSHIP of Bristol was licensed to carry two hundred and fifty passengers to New England.2 She sailed about April. SAMUEL WAKEMAN (returning)
CHARLES of Bristol was licensed to carry two hundred and fifty passengers to New England.3 Of this vessel Winthrop made the following record: 'A great ship called the Charles, of above 300 tons, brought passengers hither this year. The master was a plain, quiet man, but his company was very wicked, and did wrong the passengers much, and being at Pascataquack to take in clapboards with another ship wherein Mr. (Hugh) Peter by occasion preached one Lord's Day, the company of the Charles did use all the means they could to disturb the exercise by hooting and hallooing.' 4 After many delays she sailed from Bristol June 18 and one of the passengers testified that they 'were debarred of our beere & water before landing and if we had bin put to a long voyage we must needs have suffered much more than we did.' 5

SCIPIO of London, three hundred tons, was licensed to carry one hundred and eighty passengers to New England.3

This compilation contains about 3600 passengers by name, while Hotten has only about 2100 listed for New England. Recalling the statement of Johnson, quoted in an earlier part of this book (page 12), that there were 298 ships which brought about 21,200 to New England 'to 1643,' it will be seen that the present compilation can account for the arrival of but 213 ships in all to 1641, and only 158 by name. Thus, only twenty per cent of the emigrants by name and the ships they came in have been recovered.

APPENDIX
THE SHIP LYON, 1630
THERE is no known list of passengers coming on this ship, just before the arrival of the Winthrop Fleet (see page 85), and an attempt is here made to supply this lack from casual references and a process of elimination based on contempo- rary evidence. This synthetic list is offered as a contribution to the solution of this interesting question.
