Notes - Came to America on the ship Truelove with his first wife and children. He appeared to have settled first in Dorchester in 1636, then was in Salem in 1648.
After he survived his second wife Ralph moved to Bridgewater to live out his remaining days in care of his son Samuel.
On 27 Nov. 1666, administration of Ralph's estate was granted to John Tompkins who presented an inventory on 12 Nov. 1666. The Court ordered that the five acres of land mentioned in the inventory be given to the said John and after Ralph's debts were paid the remainder of the estate was to be given to Mary, daughter of John Foster (Ralph's granddaughter).
