William Vinson's mother

William Vinson (Vincent) was born about 1610. He was in Salem with his mother and a cousin, Anthony Bucstone [SIC: Anthony Buxton] in 1636 when land was laid out to them at Marblehead.

From Descendants of Isaac Hall of Harpswell and others

Massachusetts and Maine Families, Volume I, Buxton, of Salem, Page 249

Buxton is a place name, and Buxton in Derbyshire is a well known health resort owing to mineral springs. There is, however, a parish of Buxton in Norfolk, and it is probable that the Buxton families in East Anglia, of whom there are not a few, owed their surname to origin in the latter place.
Identification of an English home is, of course, less difficult when three emigrants of different surnames but closely related are involved. In the case of Anthony Buxton we have his uncle or cousin William Vinson and Vinson's mother who was probably Isabel Babson but so far this has failed to produce the desired result.
