    William likely arrived Boston in 1636 or 1637, perhaps traveling with John Wheelwright's group. The first evidence of his presence in New England was his signature on a petition for "Combination" for a government in Exeter, New Hampshire on 4 October 1639. He resided at Wells, Maine until about 1649, when he removed to Dover where he spent the rest of his life. 

    William had two wives and we are descended from him on the Wright (Tucker) line through both. The first wife's name is unknown and we are descended through their son Ezekiel. Through his second wife, Elizabeth Kenney, we are descended through their son Benjamin. Wentworth is notable for the large number of his descendants who reached great prominence in the American colonies and in the United States. His grandson John Wentworth was the Lieutenant Governor of the Province of New Hampshire at a time when the governor was also the governor of Massachusetts. New Hampshire governors Benning Wentworth and Sir John Wentworth are also descendants, as were Judge John Wentworth and his son John Wentworth Jr., a New Hampshire representative to the Continental Congress.[
