Notes for *Mary Wentworth

1 _FACT1
2 DATE 1620
2 PLACE "Mayflower" passenger


The maiden name of William Brewster's wife has not been proven. Theclaim it was Mary Wentwor
th rests solely on the fact that Mary Wentworthhappened to live somewhat close to William Bre
wster in Scrooby,
Nottingham. That is very shaky evidence to say the least. Further, it
has been proposed that William Brewster may have married Mary Wyrall, but
the evidence is just as flimsy for that marriage. There are no fewer
than seven marriages from 1590-1610 that have been located in parish
registers showing a William Brewster marrying a Mary. All, however, have
been satisfactorily eliminated as possible candidates for the William and
Mary (Brewster) who came on the Mayflower. So at present, there is no
evidence to document who William Brewster's wife Mary actually was.
