From GenForum:

Actually there is no proof that this James lived in Canada other than the fact Joshua Bailey Richmond's book

There is also other documentation in a book titled "The History of Deerfield" that mentions this family... .

My Mayflower descendants go through the Gorham's back to John Gorham. John married Desire Howland, daughter of John Howland.
