    Thomas and Dorothy (Yorke) Dudley were passengers in 1630 aboard the Flagship Arbella of the Winthrop Fleet, along with their children, including Samuel and Anne, We have lines of descent on the Laviolette (DeRochemont) branch from both of these children. Thomas was a New England colonial magistrate who served several terms as governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Dudley was the chief founder of Newtowne, later Cambridge, Massachusetts, and built the town's first home. He provided land and funds to establish the Roxbury Latin School and signed Harvard College's new charter during his 1650 term as governor. Dudley was a devout Puritan who opposed religious views not conforming with his.

    Thomas is a known Gateway Ancestor to royalty through his mother Susanna Thorne and father Roger Dudley. While the paternal ancestry of Thomas Dudley has long been questioned, after a careful reading of the documentatio, which I have attached to the tree, for our family tree I have accepted the lineage detailed by Marshall Kirk in 1993.
