"On 25 June 1653 John Chandler "being at sea bound for Barbados" left his entire estate to "Edmund Chandler, my father, living at New Plimouth in New England," and if his father was dead then to his brothers and sisters."
John was traveling on family business. Among the bequests in his father's 1662 will: " to 'my three daughters Sarah, Anna and Mary three thousand and five hundred of sugar which belongs to me at Barbadoes.' "
unreferenced marriage to Mary Davis, 21 oct 1644 Duxbury
from EdmundChandler.com, about John Chandler:
We do not know who his mother was, but he is believed to be the son of Edmund's, second wife. The only record that we have of him is his Will. He died probably shipboard, as his Will was written on the way to the Barbados in 1653. He is not believed to have had a wife and children, because he left everything to his father or to his siblings if his father was not living. His Will is in the Barbados archives and was proved July 11, 1653. He was listed has a planter of St. Phillip's parish, Barbados. Here is the abstracted version of his Will from the Barbados archives:
"All my estate to Edmund Chandler my father, living at New Plimouth (sic) in New England, if father is dead to my brothers and sisters. Father to be Executor. Goods in ship "Seaflower", Capt. Miles Canaton Commander; friend Lt. John Dixon is to see that goods get to father, brothers or sisters."
