In 1647 there were few dirt paths and roads anywhere in this area so it is not a logical that his body carried that far to be buried. His immediate family was all in Woburn at the time of his death. The Ezekiel Richardson that is supposed to be buried in Pelham, MA is most likely a younger relative of his from the families that migrated there later.
