John Clements
Born 22 Oct 1620 England
Occupation: Farmer
Married Sarah Osgood 1 Jun 1648 Andover, Essex, Massachusetts
Children: Sarah, Lydia, Mary, Hannah, Rebecca
Died 21 Jul 1659 Atlantic Ocean, shipwreck
Note: There are two versions of his death. In one, after his death, his family 'returned' to England and in the second, there was a shipwreck and his wife and children were lost with him before they reached England (there is debate on which children died - why would they leave ten year old Sarah and baby Rebecca behind?) As far as his family returning to England? Sarah had no reason to return. Her extended family was already well established in America. The only two ships I've found that were leaving about that time were the Frances and the Adventure. The Frances was carrying ten passengers and it was her first voyage - though it doesn't say she wrecked.
