Adam Mott was born in Cambridge, England on 12 August 1596 to John Mott and Elizabeth Hollis. He married Elizabeth Creel on 28 October 1616. They had four children: John (1618), Adam (1623), Jonathan (1626), and Elizabeth (1629) who married Edward Thurston in Rhode Island. Elizabeth died in 1632 and Adam married Sarah Jennings Lott on 11 May 1635. Sarah had a daughter from her previous marriage to Engelbert Pieters Lott. Her name was Mary Lott (b. 1630). Adam, his wife Sarah, and their five children boarded the ship Defence (Defiance) in London in July for the voyage to the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Before embarking, Adam "brought testimony from the Justices of Peace, and minister in Cambridge, of his conformity to and discipline of the Church of England." In all likelihood, Adam, a tailor, also had all of his wealth -- we have no idea how much that may have been.

Taking a moment here, the planning for this move had to have begun long before Adam married Mary. To cut his ties to England he would have to liquidate all his property and convert it to gold or currency. There was probably no business to sell, and whether or not he owned his home is unknown. There may have been little or no wealth. But, there was not such thing as having his English bank wire his whatever funds there may have been to his American bank. One would assume that Mary was aware of Adam's plans when they were married.

Arriving in Boston on after a three-month voyage on 8 Oct 1635, with all the family having survived, Adam set up residence in Roxbury where he is recorded as a freeman on 25 May 1636. Roxbury was one of the first settlements in the Colony and "It was said that the best people settled in Roxbury. They were people of substance, many of them farmers, none being 'of the poorer sort." Adam and Sarah were members of the First Church at Roxbury. (It is not known what denomination this church may have been.) Adam later moved his family to Hingham, MA where he had a grant of land. How he acquired the property in Roxbury or the grant of land in Hingham is unknown. Nor is it know if he worked as a tailor or at some other endeavor.

What is known is that Adam moved to Massachusetts with evidence of conformity with the discipline of the Church of England, the Puritans left England because they were unhappy with the practices of the Church of England as being too lax, the Puritans made their religion the religion of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and the Puritans had begun trials and rendering punishments to people who did not comply with their brand of religion.

Adam Mott wrote his will on 2 April 1661 and named his children:
(1) John (who was also on the 1635 passenger list to America)
(2) Adam (who was also on the 1635 passenger list to America)
(3) Elizabeth (who was also on the 1635 passenger list to America)
(4) Jacob (not on the 1635 passenger list; son of second wife and born in America)
(5) Gearsham (not on the 1635 passenger list; son of second wife and born in America)
(6) Eleazar (not on the 1635 passenger list; son of second wife and born in America)

In addition, Adam had another son, Jonathan, on the 1635 passenger list. Jonathan was not named in Adam's will and may have been deceased by 1661. Mary, who was listed as 4 years old on the 1635 passenger list, was the daughter of Sarah Lott [second wife of Adam] and her first husband. Adam Mott [Jr] married Mary Lott, his stepsister.

(See sources "The Great Migration" and "Passengers to America".)

Adam first married Elizabeth Creel or Creed, 28 Oct 1616 in Saffron Walden, Essex, England. She died in England before 1632. The ship logs of the "Defense" 1635, show Adam [39], Sara [2nd wife][31], his 4 children Adam, Jr. [12], Elizabeth [6], John [14] and Jonathan [9] and Sarah's daughter Mary Lott [4]. He married second Sarah Jennings, widow of Mr. Lott. He was listed as a Taylor.

He was first in Roxbury, freeman 25 May 1636; perhaps dissatisfied as a friend of Htchinson, went 1638 to Rhode Island with family; He, along with Adam jr., John, and Jonathan, were listed as freemen 1655 in Portsmouth.

Will was created 2 Apr 1661, and inventory posted 12 Aug 1661, so he died between the two dates. The inventory was valued about 371 pounds.
