Disputed Origins

Neither John Pope Sr.'s will (he died in 1646, will proved in 1649), or his widow Jane Pope's will, dated April 18, 1662, mention any children except a daughter, Patience. They had a son, John, born June 30, 1635, who undoubtedly died before his father, and a son Nathan who was born and died in 1641.[4] This article goes on to explain that there was no relationship proved between John Pope Sr., and the John Pope who came to New England with his master, Nicholas Butler. The latter is the one that came from Kent as one of the servants of Nicholas Butler, and is the immigrant ancestor of the Dorchester Pope family.[4] Nicholas Butler, his family, and five servants took passage from Sandwich, Kent, England May 11, 1637.[5] Estimating that he was 18 years old in 1637, his birth was circa 1619.
In summary, it appears that the John Pope of this profile in not the son of John Pope and Jane ______ (shown on WikiTree as Jane (Clap) Pope. His parentage is uncertain, and the current parents have been removed from his profile.
