Henry Howland is thought to have come to Massachusetts with his brother Arthur aboard the Fortune in 1621, or the Anne in 1623. Their brother John had preceded them to Plymouth as one of the Mayflower Pilgrims in 1620. A fourth brother, Humphrey Howland, a draper of the parish of St. Swithin, London, whose will was proved on 10 July 1646, left bequests to his three brothers, Arthur, John and Henry, in New England. Henry had been apprenticed to Humphrey prior to emigrating.

Still another brother, George, was of St. Dunstan's parish. The family's original home in England was unknown until 1957, when a will for Humphrey Howland was discovered. Extensive research has failed to reveal the parentage of the brothers.

The earliest Massachusetts record for Henry Howland is in the allotment of cattle in Plymouth in 1624, where he appears as owner of the "black cow."

Parents of Nicholas Howland:
The writer has been unable to find any record evidence of the parentage of Nicholas, but two facts leads to the undoubted conclusion that he was the son of Zoeth, namely: His widow was the native of a town adjoinging the one where Daniel (93) owned a ferry, and he may have been in Daniel's employ at the time; again, he settled close by Nathaniel (91) and Henry (94) all of whom were without a doubt his brothers. He was probably the youngest child, and his name did not get on the public records.
