Biography

Darothia Woodde was baptised 13 October 1584 in Baslow, Derbyshire [1]

Research Notes

According to the original entry for this profile Thomas Flint married Dorothy Wood 6 June 1607 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England. The source citation given for this (broken weblink now deleted) is the U.S. and International Marriage Records set at ancestry.com. That source is no more than a combination of opinions from user contributed trees, and is wrongly quoted anyway.

The U.S. and International Marriage Records data set has an entry for that couple, but it is dated 1603 and has no location.

On 6 June 1607 Thomas Fleent married Dorathie Lawrence at Chesterfield [2].

If the estimated births of the two children suggested to be those of this couple are anything close to correct, then they were not children of Thomas and Dorothy Flint of Chesterfield.

There is also no evidence to connect the Dorothy Wood baptised in Baslow as being the mother of those those two sons, said to be born in Matlock. It is not impossible (Matlock is only 10 miles from Baslow), there is just no evidence to support it.

This comment from Anderson's Great Migration, talking of Henry Flint:

J Henry Lea published a collection of wills for the Flint and Wood[is] families of Matlocke, Derbyshire, he thought that Thomas Flint, testator of 1623, was the father of the immigrant Flint brothers, and that the wife of this Thomas, Dorothy, was sister of William Wood of Concord.

Dorothy Flint is said to have died in 1655 in Concord, Middlesex, Massachusetts [citation needed].

Wood-14209 and Wood-2992 appear to represent the same person because: Not much information on either profile, but what there is pertains to both

What is the evidence that Dorothy Wood who died in Concord was the mother of Thomas and William Flint of Salem. There was another Thomas Flint of Concord, said to have been born in Matlock, Darbyshire who seems a more likely candidate for her son.
