Biography
Jane Partridge was most likely born in Olney, Buckinghamshire, since her father John Partridge died there in 1647. He made a nuncupative will leaving his estate first to his wife Frances, presumed mother of his children, and then to the children of his son William and daughter Jane Gaines who had left England for Massachusetts.[1]
On 17 May 1634 in Olney, Buckinghamshire, Jane married Henry Gaines (Geines).[2]
Jane and her husband settled in Lynn, Massachusetts. Both were dead by 1645 leaving their two children orphans.[3][4]
