He was kidnapped as a small boy of about five years and placed on a ship bound fo America. There he served for a number of years as an indentured servant.

My Best Genealogy Tips: Quick Keys to Research Ancestry, Book 2
I assist beginners and researchers who feel they need to start over. This is the second book, but there is no need to buy the first book. I have added the principles from the first book and added a ton more to My Best Genealogy Tips: Quick Keys to Research Ancestry, Book 2. I include some of the top questions asked by my Genealogy! Just Ask! Group. I walk you through getting an oral history interview, using historical records rather than family trees, and making sure you remember to include the things expert researchers have admittedly forgotten. You will avoid the common pitfalls many seasoned researchers have fallen into, such as what to do when you find a photo that you would like to use. We encourage you to tell us the most important family history - your own! Become proficient with the Research Wiki where you look for resources that match where your ancestors lived. I have answered thousands of questions from researchers around the globe. The things you learn in this book will enable you to help yourself.
