John came from from Knapton in Yorkshire. According to the Boynton Family History, written in 1898, p. 1, 44-45, John and his older brother, William Boynton, were the first generation of Boyntons to come to America, settling in Rowley, MA in 1638. They came with Rev. Ezekiel Rogers and others from Yorkshire in England in the autumn of 1638.
John was a "tailor" by trade, but tilled the "acre and a half of land" that was assigned him in 1640. The land was next to his brother's. He married Ellen (Eleanor, or Helen) Pell of Boston and had seven children, all born in Rowley. Their children, 4 boys and 3 girls, all married.
