      John Barrows (Barrow ro Borowe), the immigrant ancester, was born in England and came to New England, sailing from the port of Yarmouth, having taken the examination to go to New England, stating his age as twenty-eight and that of his wife
      Anne, as forty. He was a Cooper by trade. He was a proprietor of Salem, MA, May 10, 1637. Afterwards he removed to Plymouth. It is believed that he was related to Jeremiah Barrows or Burrows of Scituate and Marshfield. In 1665, John
      Barrows was of Plymouth where he died in 1692. He seems to have had a second wife, Deborah.
