Just where John I came from, in the old world, as of the publication
date of the Second Edition of "Corys Of America", has not been proven
satisfactorily or strong enough to say at this time. He may have
arrived in America on the Ship Planter. Some of the first researchers
of the Cory Genealogy tried to prove that he came from Bramerton Hall
near Norwich, England. It is also believed that he came to America
about 1637. He may have lived in Salem, Massachusetts and Rhode
Island. The latest theory is that he was the John Cory that was in
Rhode Island and left under strange circumstances. Also that he may
have been the father of William of Portsmouth. We believe that John
was one of the men who assisted John Youngs on October 21 1640 in the
organization of the First (Presbyterian) Church at Southold, LI., New
York. John Cory is mentioned as being from Southold and as the Whale
Commissioner 7 March 1644. The Will of John CORY I, dated 1 February
