Narrative
John Shircliffe came to America about 1638. John was illiterate, and relied on his "cousin" Thomas Spalding, whose passage he paid, for help with his accounting. It is unclear how Thomas and John were related, but John specifically notes in his will that his cousin Thomas should inherit 50 acres of land. Thomas continued to work for John's widow until 1674, when he married.
A note in the Family History Library, Salt Lake City, UT (FHL 985186 indicates that Catherine Hall emigrated with the John Jarboe family from Dijon, France. Her uncle was John Shircliffe, which would make Thomas Spalding a nephew by marriage to John Shircliffe.
The Jarboe, Shircliffe and Spalding families all intermarried in Maryland and Nelson Co, Kentucky, and those famiies, along with the Clarkes and the Haydens, also intermarried with the Mattinglys.
