He was a zealous Puritan whose views often got him in trouble with theBishops of Norwich. These views had influenced many of parishioners toimmigrate to New England, where they helped found the town of Hingham,MA. In 1636, the Bishops had him excommunicated for non-conformity,forcing him to immigrate in1638. He sailed from Ipswich, England aboardthe "Diligent" with his children Joseph and Anne from his first marraige,his second wife Martha, and 2 servants; arriving in Boston on 10 Aug1638. His brother Joseph and his family sailed with them.They soon joinedhis old parishioners in Hingham, where he was ordained a teacher of thechurch on 28 Nov 1638, and admitted as a freeman on 13 Mar 1639.
He returned to England on 27 Oct 1641, with his wife, son Joseph, and amaid. After Parliament won it's long struggle with the King, he wasreinstated as the rector of his former parish in Hingham, England in1646, and served in that capacity until his death in 1656. His daughterAnne had remained in America, where she married Captain John Mason, acommander in the Pequot War and distinguished for his public service inConnecticut.
