Marlene, The Mayflower Families "silver" book on the White family states that her maiden name is unknown. If you have a reliable, recent source that gives good proof of her name as Fletcher, please advise. If not, please change her LNAB to "Unknown."

Thanks, Bobbie Mayflower Project, co-leader

I agree with you Bobbie. It's strange that the Bio/Source info reflects "Unknown" that contradicts the current LNAB.
