The identity of Mary's mother is unknown. Frank Roe's book takes the position that Hugh had two wives, with a second marriage to Abigail (surname unknown) in 1654/5.[1] The TAG article indicates all the children could have been born to the same wife.[2]
Mary was the eldest of the three daughters born to Hugh Roe.[3] They lived for a time in Weymouth, Massachusetts Bay Colony, where several of his 7 children were born. Weymouth is now identified as Weymouth, Norfolk County, Massachusetts, USA. [4]
The family later moved to Suffield, Massachusetts Bay Colony. Suffield eventually became part of the State of Connecticut. Suffield is now known as Suffield, Hartford County, Connecticut, USA. [5]
On November 4, 1661 Mary Roe married William Dudley at Saybrook in the Connecticut Colony.[6]
The Suffield Historical Society has a webpage dedicated to "Early Families" which contains detailed information regarding the Roe Family's genealogy. Mary Roe's information may be found in Families 1 and 2.[7]
William Dudley died in 1701; widow Mary remarried to Richard Dart. Her will was dated June 16, 1726 and described her as a "widow and relict." She names daughter Elizabeth Remington, daughter Mehetabell Brainard, sons Joseph and Daniel Dudley, grandson William Dudley, and daughter-in-law Elizabeth Dudley Spencer. The estate was settled on May 7, 1728 between Joshua Brainard and Joseph Remington.[8]
