Margaret (Goodrich) Ingold, daughter of Thomas Goodrich Jr. and Margaret Barham, was never married to an immigrant named John Browne. A profile of the immigrant John Browne on Geni.com cites the wife and children named in his 07 Apr 1662 will.
John Browne married Dorothy BEAUCHAMP in 22 Dec 1611 St James, Clerkenwell, London. Alternatively, they were married Sep 1613 in Kent, England. (note: Anderson's Great Migration Project has her name as Dorothy Kent) [1]
They came to American on the Lyon with four children: Mary, John, James, and William. [2]
John was prominent in the Plymouth colony, having He was living in Duxbury in 1636; in Taunton in 1643 but soon moved to Swansea. He was Assistant for seventeen years; served as one of the Commissioners of the United Colonies for twelve years, and sat on the Council of War for three years. He was one of the lessees of Kennebec trade in 1649. [3]
His will was dated Apr 7,1662, and proved Apr 19,1662. He died less than two weeks after the death of his son John Browne Jr. [4]

NOTE
John Brown the son attached here, was allegedly born in Virginia in 1609, but probably born in England. The father (this profile) would probably not have died in 1662 in Massachusetts. The date was "borrowed" from the New England settler.

Browne-505 and Browne-1382 do not represent the same person because: One is the immigrant to New England the other is father of an immigrant to Virginia

Browne-505 and Browne-1382 appear to represent the same person because: Please don't reject a merge proposal that's actually a real duplicate such as in this case. :-) Same parents/spouse/siblings/children are all lined up age wise. Thanks for your help in reuniting this family.

Browne-505 and Browne-1382 do not represent the same person because: It would seem that Browne-1382 has acquired the incorrect death date belonging to Browne-505 as frequently happens in sloppy genealogy. Children born in Virginia are not likely to have parents living in Massachusetts
