My name is Patty Fessenden Bernhardt. I have the Fessenden books, but as I am in Yuma Az for the winter I emailed my brother and he looked in the books to see if there was what you were looking for there. All that he could find was the fact that they were John [wife Jane] Fessenden . Some say that they arrived in 1628. Other accounts say in 1636 or 1638. It does seem that they lived in Cambridge, Mass. Bay Colony and resided at what is now the southeast corner of Winthrop & Eliot streets. He sold this property in 1639 and purchased a house and lot described as being on the west side of Eliot street, south of Mt. Auburn Street in Cambridge. This was the Fessenden family residence fo more than a century. There was no info as to how they got here [ship name] or where or when they landed. Hope this is of some help. Patty
