Biography
The second wife of Edmund Chandler, has neither a known given or a known surname. She died before he wrote his will in 1662.[1]
Her children are estimated born between 1632 and 1648. Because of these births she was probably younger that Edmund born about 1610.
Most sources assume daughters Sarah, Anna and Mary (all named together in their father's will) were by his second wife. However, there is no reason to believe this. The fact daughter Ruth was listed separate from the other three daughters is a weak indication that Ruth was by a different mother than the other three. Ruth is believed to be the youngest of Edmund's children, so would have been by his second wife.

Elizabeth is the most common given name for her other grandmothers of that time and place, appearing half again as frequently as Mary or Ann; but no parents named their daughters "Unknown". While I have no objection to an adding an explanatory note regarding uncertainly, profiles for individuals identified only as Unknown Unknown seem counterproductive to database functionality.
