Biography

Mary Phinney was born in Barnstable, Plymouth Colony on 03 September 1678, the daughter of John and Mary (Rogers) Finney/Phinney.[1][2][3]

She married first to John Eastland on 29 October 1702 in Plymouth.[4] He was the widower of Elizabeth Jenny whom he married 17 October 1700 at Plymouth.[5] John died before 24 September 1726 in Plymouth when his estate was inventoried, and on 1 November following an allowance was made to his widow. The administrator of the estate was Capt. Ephraim Morton.[6]

Mary married secondly, after intentions were published in Plymouth and Kingston on 12 November 1726, Jonathan Bryant of Kingston.[7][8] Jonathan was married first to Margery or Margaret West on 27 February 1700,[9] by whom he had Rebecca, Priscilla, Marcy, Mary, Jonathan and probably Abigail.[3] Jonathan was the son of John and Abigail (Bryant) Bryant, born Plymouth on 23 March 1677.[10] Jonathan was living in Kingston on 27 March 1742 when his son Jonathan Bryant, Jr., sold land there "now in possession of my father Jonathan Bryant."[11]

Mary Bryant died between 19 May 1733 and 24 January 1755.[12] No probate records are found in Plymouth County for Jonathan or Mary Bryant.[3]
