Jul 2022. Several of Judith's researchers have misinterpreted the date/location of her death as the probate date/location of husband Walter's will (16 May 1758) ...where she is clearly referred to as one who has SURVIVED him!
(Changed to read her death was AFTER that date.)
-------------------
Judith Mask was the daughter of John and Elizabeth Mask. She may have been born in St. Peter's Parish where she was baptized on 10 Jul 1698. She married Walter Leake and survived him (per his will dated 31 Oct 1757, probated 16 May 1758 in Goochland Co., VA) [1]
Christened on July 10,1698 in St. Peter's Parish. <Kinfolks, p.276>

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Judith by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Judith:

Mask-94 and Mask-12 appear to represent the same person because: These profiles represent the same daughter of John Mask, who married to Walter Leake and should be merged after the merge of duplicate profiles for John Mask.
The following tree on Ancestry (no one that I know personally) has posted Walter Leake's will and gives the source of it with the date it was admitted to court after his death as 16 May 1758. Someone mistakenly has that date listed as his wife Judith Mask Leake's date of death. She is listed as surviving him in the will.
