Disputed origins

June 24, 1635 Capt Adam Thorogood secured a patent, listing Margaret as a "Bilby", then stated he planned to bequeath his goods to her father Lewis Bailey.

Dates are not adding up! Margaret Bailey born about 1615. Lewis Bailey immigrated 1621. Margaret Bailey immigrated 1635. Why would Lewis not have brought his daughter and wife assuming she was still living, with him in 1621? Who raised Margaret in England while Lewis was in America?
