Notes

1. Geni has her birth ca. 1560, OurFamilyHistories has it as ca. 1574. Considering the birth of her son, William, was in 1610, the first birth year is implausible. The second date is used for this profile.

2. FamilySearch query for Constance Holton returns no records. Queries for Constance Adkinson or Adkindson return no records. 108 trees exist for Adkindson+Edward, only 5 trees for Adkinson+Edward. So her most likely maiden name was Adkindson, not Adkinson. Few of these trees specify the names of her parents. But a few name them as Henry Adkindson and Constance Sympson.
