Harwich is an ancient North Sea port, northeast of London, which was the home port of the ship Mayflower and home of its captain Christopher Jones. Carlyon-Hughes asserted that the Aldens of Harwich were related to Jones and also that a young John Alden of the Harwich Aldens was about the same age as the Mayflower passenger.
Banks also wrote on highly dubious grounds that he was probably of Harwich in County Essex, the hometown of Mayflower captain Christopher Jones and may have been related to him. He received one share in the colony land division of 1623 and was a crew member of the Plymouth-based Little James in 1624.
