"Following is information from Valentine Research Studio, of Washington D.C., written by Caroline Valentine, and published in 1932: John, the eldest son of the Founder, sustained the family traditions in his marriage with Susanna Anthony. With James, and Abiel, he had prominent part in peopling New York, as Colony and State, as also the great lands to the west. His father's will gave him most of the Portsmouth holdings, the homestead place. Among the sons of John the Pioneer, young John was naturally held the most important because he was the oldest son Joseph held first place because he had the largest family Peleg, perhaps because of his greater public service James because of his greater wealth while Abiel perhaps was first in the family thought because he was mourned so early. Each held the others in high regard and rightly so.

The first mention of Rhode Island in writing ('isola di Rhode') was made by explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano in 1524 (he refers to an island near the mouth of Narragansett Bay which he compares to the Island of Rhodes in the Mediterranean). Some attribute the name to Dutch explorer Adriaen Block ('Roode Eylandt'), again because its red clay is similar to the Greek island of Rhodes. (statesymbolsusa.org)Prior to 1633 - New England
