Documents Royal Descent Joan Price Great Migration: George Cleeve (1586-1667)
https://www.americanancestors.org/DB393/rd/12107/383/235175320George Cleeve was a vintner in England . George emigrated to what is now New England in 1630, settling first in Spurwink, Maine (near today's Cape Elizabeth), and at Falmouth (today's Portland) in 1633. In 1637, Sir Ferdinando Gorges granted George and associate Richard Tucker 1,500 acres at Machegonne (Portland Neck) that included the area of today's downtown Portland. George is known as the father of Portland, and a statue is erected in modern Portland commemorating this. His career was both contentious and litigious, engaged in frequent land disputes and vying with Gorges' Province of Maine for jurisdiction over the area north of Cape Porpoise. In a letter to Governor John Winthrop from a contemporary, he was described as"a firebrand of dissension and hath set the whole Province together by the ears."He married Joan Price in England in 1618; George made several trips back and forth to England during his career and it is unknown on which trip she emigrated. Even before he left England, George was involved in a suit against his father-in-law, John Price. Not muchy is known of Joan's life but she is a docoumented "Gateway Ancestor" to royalty.The early records of Maine are filled with less than admirable descriptives of his nature. His hatred for Ferdinando Gorges, and others of the titled class, was pronounced, and he attempted every coercion possible to defame those who stood in his way, or to misrepresent his aim to others in order to pursue his own gain. That he was initially, to those who knew nothing of his character, persuasive and charming, is apparent, but it was not long before he had alienated every person of power in both Maine and Massachusetts.We are descended from George and Joan through the Laviolette (DeRochemont-Shorey) line.
