• Notes

  Bartholomew Allerton was born around 1612 or 1613 in Leiden, Holland, to parents Isaac and Mary (Norris) Allerton. He, his parents, and his sisters Remember and Mary came to Plymouth on the Mayflower in 1620. At some point, Bartholomew returned to England and took up residence in Norfolk and later Bramfield, Suffolk. A 1657 chancery suit, a couple of letters in the British Library, and his 1658/9 will are the known records of his life in England. Nobody has successfully documented descent from Bartholomew Allerton, but he probably does have some descendants living in England, if information about his children could be further traced.

Sometime after the 1627 Division of Cattle, he returned to England, taking up residence for a time in co. Norfolk before settling in Bramfield, co. Suffolk. Bartholomew left behind several English records, including a couple of letters to Sir Philip Percival; a chancery lawsuit in 1657; and his will dated 15 October 1658.

I am thanks be to god, from whom we enjoy all we have in peace settled here, but how long this will continue I know not for there is at present a Counsel against me at London, which arrived there that very day in the evening upon which I despatched my business. What he intendeth or can do against me, is not for me to imagine. Yet I am confident that truth will defend its self, at the hardest, against falsehood. I deserve no ill, and therefore to wish any were of an abj Yet if it were not over much boldness in me, or too much trouble to your Worship I should desire you would be pleased to go, or send your man to Mr Felps (Phelps) the Clarke of this Committee, where my business lyeth, who liveth at the widow white's house in the Whitefriars to inquire if anything be ordered, or complaint made against me: and so to send me word by the next return of the post, which cometh out of London on Sabbath day next in the evening. In the mean time let me in treat your Worship fullness to give so much to my words that the first pounds I shall receive of this years profits is destined to defray the third part of that debt which Ralph Greene long owes and that I hope shall not be deferred above six weeks for your new kindness calleth for speedy payment of an old debt. This hiring will be no inheritance. I should therefore desire, if it come in your way you would recommend me to some honest patron. To conclude the lord ease his that is heavy against us, and send you as high a flood as you ebbe low; to whose goodness I commend you and yours My wife that now waits for a happy hour commends her service to yourself and Lady. Bramfeild in Suffolk: 14th day of May 1645
