I wonder of John's parentage. Note this . . .

(John Hollett, the elder) was an extensive landholder. Hollet's island, near 'the stepping stones,' now retains his name. He was in Scituate, or rather had lands assigned to his right, in 1668. "He was probably at Yarmouth in 1650, in which year his son John was there born."

[Source: Samuel Deane, History of Scituate, Massachusetts, from Its First Settlement to 1831]

. . . which suggests that this John was the son of John (and his wife, Ann Tucker), not of Andrew.
