Biography

Possibly conflated profile, see research notes.

Mary was born in 1660 in Virginia. She died there in 1710. She married Richard Albritton.^[1] (Find-a-Grave lists Ralph Albritton, no sources given.)

From the 1683 will of Richard Albrighton:

Item, I give and bequeath unto my daughter Elizabeth one cow yearling to be paid her a year after my decease, further it is my desire that my daughter Mary may have that mare to herself with increase that was given her by her uncle Francis Albridgton and likewise that she may have that mare to herself with their increase that was given to her by her uncle Richard Wooten.

Richard Wooten is Mary Wooten's brother.

Following Richard's death, Mary married Robert Harris (probably between 1683 and 1685, but certainly by 1693, when it was mentioned in court records over another matter).^[5] They had at least two sons (Robert and Matthew), possibly three (John).

Mary was born about 1653. She passed away about 1695.

Research Notes

None of the sources attached to her FamilySearch profile define her as Mary Wooten Albrighton, who supposedly was born in 1653 in Colonial Virginia. Nor do they support her parentage.^[6] [Sources probably belong to another individual; surname does not match anything associated with this person.]

The widow of Richard Albritton did marry Robert Harris after Richard's death, but this writer has not yet found her first name (see image on this profile). Her maiden name appears to be Wooten, as her first husband's will mentions an uncle Richard Wooten in a bequest to their daughter, Mary, as shown above.

Possibly conflated profile: spouse Ralph or Richard Albritton, or were there two different women who married these men? In the list of children, daughters Mary and Elizabeth are not mentioned, perhaps they are the children of Richard and his wife, and those listed are the children of Ralph and his wife. More research needed to sort out this profile. Perhaps the two were sisters?
