James, John, and Miles were three Morgan brothers who arrived in America together; that much is fairly well-accepted.

Granted, there isn't much evidence against the connection, but virtually noprimary evidence supporting it, either.James married Margery Hill on 6 Aug 1640 in Roxbury, New London, MA.
