• Notes

  John sailed from Plymouth, England to Nantascot (which was named Hull in 1646) on Mar. 20, 1630 on the "Mary and John." He lived and was possibly born in Mosterne, Dorset, England before emmigrating to the colonies. (C-806) He arrived ws parents, Thomas Gallop and Frances Paulet and brother, Humphrey Gallop on May 31, 1630. (Varying parents have been given by one other source as John Gallop and an unknown Crabbe.) John is remembered for "the first naval engagement" presumably of the colonies. (C-813) He held the title of Captain. He was educated at a military school in Holland before emigrating with his family to Massachusetts. (C-682) He is the John Gallop listed as a person owning property in Boston in 1647 in the "Book of Possessions." (C-978) His will dated 10th month 20th day, 1649, listed the following persons: Christobel (his wife), son John, Dau. Joan Gallop, two youngest sons Samuel and Nathaniel, his daughter's son John Jay. It was signed by his wife Christobel, son John Gallop and Hannah his wife and daughter, Joane Jay. It appears to have been probated on the 24th, 5th mo, 1655. (C-813)
