Disputed Parents

"--marriage Mary Curwen, daughter of John Curwen and Margaret Winthrop, bap. Sept. 16, 1676, married Capt. Thomas Smith. Col. Samuel... [1]

The Corwin Genealogy in the United States [1]says that Mary was probably the daughter of Samuel Curwin of Essex:

"Mary [Samuel, I] born about 1660-1680, perhaps M. Thomas Smith May 9th, 1701. Mary's name is written Curwin, Corwine, Corwin and Curran."[2]

Many online trees indicate that Mary was the daughter of George Corwin and Susannah Gidney
