John Gorsuch (ca. 1607-1647), D.D., was born in Bishopsgate Ward of the City of London, England, the son of Daniel Gorsuch (1569-1638) and Alice Hall Gorsuch (1574-1663). He married Anne Lovelace (ca. 1511-1652), daughter of Sir William Lovelace (1584-1627) and Dame Anne Barne Lovelace (ca. 1592-1633), in 1628. They had eleven children, ca. 1629-ca. 1646. Dr. Gorsuch was installed as the rector of Walkern, Hertfordshire, in 1632. A royalist, he was ejected from the parish in 1642 during the Civil War in England. The family moved to the adjoining Weston Parish, where he was later murdered. Anne Lovelace Gorsuch and seven of her children immigrated to Virginia in 1649. She died in Virginia. Two of the children later returned to England. The others migrated to Maryland.
