After the war with Cromwell's England, English slave traders seized and shipped some 6400 Irish men, women, and children to English plantations in the West Indies and New England during a four year period ending in early 1655. In October 1655, another group of 2000 boys and girls were shipped from Galway. David was probably one of these children, as he first appears in Plymouth Colony in October 1655. |
