Mary is described in her husband Peter's will, written 7 February 1714 as "my dearly beloved wife Mary by Name," and on 19 May 1714 she took the oath as executrix of his will. The year of Mary's birth is given as 1675 in a Harrison genealogy contained in two large envelopes by William Elliott Harrison, born in 1846, a descendant of Mary's uncle Benjamin, now in the Library of the New Jersey Historical Society in Newark, New Jersey. The records of the Town of Newark on 28 April 1714 refer to "Two Widow Cundicts," referring to her and the widow of her father-in-law John Cundict.[3]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Mary by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Mary:
In this profile on the links under this profile, there are two husbands: Cunditt-4,with John Cunditt-2 (as the 338-year-old ancestor/father); The other Peter(Condit)Cundit) has John Cunditt-6 and Peter as Condit-74. Seems like Cunditt-6 first needs a merge with Condit-74, then Cunditt-4 merges into Cunditt-2, no?
I corrected Mary's date of death and re-added the merge. If you will complete this merge, I will go ahead and complete the merge into Harrison-4972.

Harrison-9126 and Harrison-9105 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles (Harrison-9126 and Harrison-9105) are the same person and need to be merged.
Harrison-9126 and Harrison-9105 are not ready to be merged because: This appears to be a match, but I will defer to the profile managers to make the final decision.
Harrison-4972 and Harrison-9105 appear to represent the same person because: Mary Harrison married Peter (Cunditt, Cundit, Condict, Condit). She is the daughter of the same parents with the same date of birth and date of death.
Harrison-9126 and Harrison-9105 appear to represent the same person because: Mary Harrison is the same person with the same spouse and parents. There may still be other merges required.
I corrected Mary's date of death and re-added the merge. If you will complete this merge, I will go ahead and complete the merge into Harrison-4972. Alan
