    The principal migration from Old England took place in 1630. A party of 50 or 60 persons under John Endicott was sent to Salem and the following June a party of 200 came under the leadership of Francis Higginson. In 1630 seventeen ships brought at least 1000 passengers from England as estimated by Palfry in his "History of New England." In one of these ships came Ezkiel Richardson. He was probably the first colonist of the name that came to New England. His two brothers Thomas and Samuel came a few years later. As early as November 5, 1640, Thomas and Samuel were chosen agents with others for the erection of a church in Charlestown, Mass. In 1640 Woburn was incorporated. The three brothers with John Mousall, Edward Converse, Edward Johnson, and William Learned were the "seven pillars of the church." They were the nucleous of the new church solemnly constituted August 4, 1642. Source: "Samuel Richardson and Josiah Ellsworth" P. 14, Author: Ruth Ellsworth Richardson, Call Number: CS71.R52 Ezekiel Richardson was a man of great respectability and worth. His name often occurs on the Charlestown records. He was, in 1633, appointed by the General Court a constable, then an office of much responsibility. In the following years, he was appointed by the town on several important committees. He was one of the first board of selectmen in Charlestown, chosen Feb. 10, 1634-5; also in 1637, 1638, 1639. He was a deputy or representative of that town in the General Court, chosen Sept. 2, 1634, and also the following year, 1635. In 1637, a lot of land was granted to him on "Misticke Side," or Malden; also to each of his brothers, of whom more in the sequel. He was a follower of Ann Hutchinson and John Wheelwright in the Antinomian Controversy of 1637, as were most of the members of the Boston church, and was one of the eighty or more persons who signed the Remonstrance in Mr. Wheelwright's favor, presented to the General Court on the ninth of March in that year.(*) At the sessio n of the General Court held in November following, he and several others desired that their names might be erased from that paper, which the Court had judged to be of seditious tendency. Thus acknowledging his fault, he was exempted from the censure inflicted by the Court; in other words, he was not disarmed, as were nearly all of the Remonstrants. It is creditable to his memory that he was willing to abandon an enterprise in which he had conscientiously, but unwisely, embarked. At the first election of town officers in Woburn, April 13, 1644, Ezekiel Richardson was chosen a selectman, and continued to be chosen to that responsible office in 1645, 1646, and 1647.Ezekiel Richardson, one of the founders of Woburn, died in that town Oct. 21, 1647. From the fact that all his children were at this time under the age of twenty-one, it is inferred that his age at his decease did not exceed forty-five. His will is dated 20th day of the fifth month, 1647; equivalent to July 20, 1647. It was proved June 1, 1648, and is on file in the Suffolk Probate Office, Boston: I Ezekiel Richardson of Woebourne, being in perfect memorie, doe make this my last will and testament as followeth, imprimis. I make my wife Susanna and my eldest son Theophilus joint Executors. item.

In 1903 Walter Kendall Watkins published the data on the English origin of the Richardsons [NEHGR 57:298-300], and this material was incorporated in Walter Goodwin Davis's treatment of the family [Sarah Hildreth Anc 25-31].
