John Barnes immigrated in 1632 and married Mary Plummer in 1633. Mary was already in Plymouth with a sister Anne. Mary and Anne's origins are unknown. They may have come on their own or, more likely, as part of some family of a different surname. John was frequently in court, the records of which still exist. He has been described as a man of high social standing but in court a lot, who had a dark side to him and at was often at odds with authority figures. He was also known for frequent drunkenness. We are descended from John and Mary through the Laviolette (DeRochemont/Shorey) line.
