Numerous historical synopses include the story that James Clement, who immigrated to Flushing NY about 1670, was the son of Gregory Clement "the Regicide" who was one of the signers of the order to execute Charles I.

It seems that this story may have originated, according to the Memorial Cyclopedia, from The Rev. Mark Noble, in his "Lives of the Regicides," Vol. I, page 145
Is anyone aware of whether there is evidence to support or refute this story? I can't find much about Gregory Clement other than stories about his capture and execution.
