Biographical Information
Resolved White came on the Mayflower at about the age of five,
with parents William and Susanna. He was raised by step-father
Edward Winslow following the death of his father William and remarriage
of his mother in 1621. They moved to Marshfield in the 1630s, and
later moved to Scituate where he married Judith Vassall, the daughter of
William and Ann (King) Vassall. Resolved White's stepfather Edward
Winslow wrote a pamphlet in 1647 entitled New England's Salamander
Discovered, where the notorious and slanderous "salamander" was
apparently William Vassall the father of his daughter-in-law.
Resolved White moved his family back to Marshfield in the early
1660s, and Judith died and was buried there on 3 April 1670. He
then remarried to the widowed Abigail Lord in 1674 in Salem, was a
soldier in King Philip's War of 1676, and became a freeman in Salem in
1680 before moving back to Marshfield a couple years later. He
died sometime not too long after 1687, presumably in Marshfield.
