Winifred Seybourne was not the widow of Nicholas Harvey; Jane, widow of Nicholas Harvey, married a different Thomas Green (not the governor). The identification of Winifred Seybourne as widow of Nicholas Harvey seems to've arisen from a conflation of Thomas Green who married Jane, widow of Nicholas Harvey, and Thomas Greene who married Winifred Seybourne.

Seybourne-1 and Seyborne-4 appear to represent the same person because: duplicate wives w/spelling variation of duplicate husbands (merge proposed). Location of birth matches -- birth date is very different, but not well sourced. If 1634 is correct for marriage year, then 1612 is more likely date of birth.
Exact same date/location of death.
Thank you!
