claimed as transported
Probable. Assessed by Cursor Grok 4.7 on 2026-10-15.
The abstract names Robt. Walton among the people claimed as transported. It says persons, not servants. The date is the patent date, and the printed count does not match the number of names.
Assessment scalar: 0.74. Editorial weight, recorded with this assessment.
Robt. Walton · John Laydon patent, 6 May 1636 claimed as transported by 6 May 1636, John Laydon patent, Warwick River County.
Documented
- The Laydon abstract, Patent Book 1, page 345, dated 6 May 1636, in Warwick River County, includes Robt. Walton in the transportation list. It says four persons and prints five names. It does not call him a servant, give a ship, or say he settled there. He is not matched to any other Robert Walton. Welbon or Welton on the neighboring Laydon patent is a different spelling and is not this man.
Compiled

Inferred
