In 1650, a young teenage boy arrived at the Town of Sandwich, Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts on a boat that had sailed from England. When he got off the boat, the Port Master asked his name.

To this date, no one has found the exact origin of that boy or his name. There is a chapter on the suspected origins of the Hoxie name, and where the HOXIEs are living today.
