"The ''Regard'', a ship of Barnstable, of about two hundred tons, arrived in 1634 with twenty passengers and about fifty cattle. Thomas Marshfield was on board and migrated on this ship.<ref name=GM /> John Winthrop wrote the following about him: "One thing I think fit to observe, as a witness of God's providence for this plantation. There came in this ship one Marisfeild, a poor godly man of Exeter, being very desirous to come to us, but not able to transport his family. There was in the city a rich merchant, one Marshall, who being troubled in his dreams about the said poor man, couldnot be quiet till he had sent for him and given him £50, and lent him £100, willing him withal, that, if he wanted, he should send to himfor more.
