Biography

Mary, daughter of James Altham & Alice, was baptised on 15 June 1637 in Mistley, Essex, England.[1]

Mary married John Tufton in 1655 in Latton, Essex, England.[2][3]

Mary and Sir John lived separately for the most part of the marriage. The Altham family were ardent Royalists and Sir John was elected to Parliament during a turbulent time when there was no oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth or to the monarchy, facts which could have caused friction between them.
