Birth*Malachi, son of William Browning and Dorothy Vernon, was born circa 1601 in Maldon, Essex, England.1 
Marriage*He married Mary Collier circa 1626.3,2 
ImmigrationMalachi immigrated to an unknown American POE between 1630 and 1640, as part of the "Watertown contingent of first comers".4 
Estate-WillMalachi was named an heir in the will of William Browning, his father, dated 23 April 1635 at Maldon, Essex, England.1 
Move*Malachi moved his residence from Watertown to Martha's Vineyard between 1646 and 1647.1 
Death*Malachi died on 27 November 1653 in Boston, Suffolk Co., Massachusetts Bay Colony, New England.5 
BioNote*Biography Note: Banks: "His activities on the Vineyard were very slight. The first and only record of him is under date of May 8, 1653, when he was given a share in the planting field. His homestead on which he drew this was the first lot on Tower hill, south of the "Slough" and was apparently part of a lot of which John Daggett owned the western half and Browning the harbor end. His occupation while on the island is shrouded in obscurity, and all clues to his connection with persons on the island end in unsatisfactory threads."4

Birth*Stephen was born circa 1596 in Kent, England.2 
Marriage*He married Ellen Panton on 17 October 1625. Nickerson shows this as first marriage, but lists no others.2 
Immigration*Stephen Post and Ellen Panton immigrated before 1634 to Norwich, Connecticut Colony, New England, from Otham, Kent, England. Their son Thomas immigrated with them, probably also children John, Abraham and Catherine Stephen resided Cambridge in 1634 according to Savage. Nickerson merely notes both their births in England and deaths in Saybrook, Connecticut. Regarding son Thomas, Nickerson says he "removed Otham, Kent, England to Norwich, CT". Since he was only three years old when parents immigrated it's fairly certain he came with them. We're showing port of entry as Norwich.1,2
