Having done some ancestry and of my family I stumbled upon the burial site of Capt. Roger Clap in the Kings Chapel Cemetery in Boston (along the freedom trail) and having not known his prominence decided to look him up on google. I found this book and found it to be a very interesting account of what the people of the time had gone through. There is some ancestry information however other books are more suited for that as this is mostly an account of the times. Would recommend this to anyone who had an ancestor travel to the US in the 1630's.
