Biography
Priscilla was born in 1673, the daughter of Philip Lewis and Mary Cass. She married Henry (Keny) Kenney in 1691 and had eight children: Jemima (Blackmore), Priscilla Aldrich, Dinah White, Mary, Anne, Esther, Mehitable (Dwinnell and Theophilus. Priscilla died in 1715.
Research Notes
See Research Notes for Date of Birth. Priscilla was born at least 13 years after her mother's birth in 1665 and her marriage in 1691, which puts at 13 with her mother's age at her birth and 13 at her age at marriage. It is hard to believe that she was born in 1652 as otherwise claimed.
Entered by David Richards to complete the merger: It appears that Mary Cass's 1665 birthdate may have been a typo in the data entry. The birthdate written in the Biography on 22 March 2014 was 1656.
