Information I have indicates Rev. John Cotton was bapt. 4 Dec 1585, Derby on River, Derwent, England; married (1) Elizabeth Horrock; 2) Sarah Hawkredd: d. Boston, MA 23 Dec 1652. Is this the John Cotten you are researching?

Roland was an attorney, the son of George and Margaret (Whittacre) Cotton. Information from: LaVerne C. Cooley, "A Short Biography of The Rev.
