Name is inscribed on the Founder's Monument -- Watertown, Massachusetts∼Born about 1588 (aged 46 in 1634). Came from Nayland, Suffolk to Massachusetts Bay in 1630 & settled in Watertown. Returned to England in 1633, & back to New England in 1634. Probably died by 10 May 1642, when he was not included in the grants of farms at Watertown.
Married: (1) By an unknown date Ann _____; she was buried at Nayland, Suffolk, 24 February 1617/8.
(2) Stoke by Nayland, Suffolk, 14 June 1620 Martha (Doggett Flack, daughter of John Doggett of Groton, Suffolk & widow of William Flack of Chattisham, Suffolk; not seen in any New England record
Neither of these marriages produced any known children.
There are hints that there were two adult John Firmins in Nayland, Suffolk in the 1610s & 1620s, because much of the English documentation cited in The Great Migration Begins, does not fit with this John Firmin, unless "Ann, wife of John Firmin," buried at Nayland on 22 Nov 1619, is the same person as "Susan Warrik, widow," who married John Firmin on 30 June 1618 & our John Firmin therefore had 3 wives in Nayland.
