"No records have been found of this marriage or of the christening o f t h e ir sons, perhaps becauseby this time William & Elizabeth were Pur ita n s an d thus breaking the law when all of their christenings, marria ge , an d bur ial dates were not made & recorded in the State Church of E ngl and. "Fine s and pillory, mutilation and torture were remorsely resor te d to, to comp el conformity to the ceremonies of the established Churc h. " Con sequently, when they were done in any other church there were n o re cord s kept, o r if they were, they were kept secretly where they co uld b e eas ily and qu ickly destroyed if necessary."
After a month in Boston, the General-Court granted them land at Musket a q u id for a settlement; they would later purchase this land from the I nd i an s in order to acquire full title. This community was later know n a s Co nco rd, Massachusetts.
