Migration of the Bunthroom family
The New World beckoned as many of the settlers in Ireland, known as the Scotch/Irish, became disenchanted. They sailed aboard the armada of sailing ships known as the "White Sails" which plied the stormy Atlantic. Some called them, less romantically, the "coffin ships." Amongst the early settlers who could be considered kinsmen of the Bunthroom family, or who bore a variation of the surname Bunthroom were Richard Bonython who settled in Maine in 1629.
