The Mary Ramirez legend came about in the early days of Ancestry. I was on the Bullard List on Rootsweb and also the Bullard boards at genforum.
Everyone was excited because they had found Henry's wife. I sat back and asked for proof. "Oh its on Ancestry. So it has to be true. " That was back in the late 1990s, before ancestry went to a paid site. All these years later, I'm still looking and waiting for that proof...!!!
Due to the recent addition of Mary Ramirez, and at the bequest of an Arborist Leader, to post why I think Mary Ramirez should be removed as the wife of Henry, I researched the public trees searching for a nugget that might actually prove Mary Ramirez. AND I went thru the Birth and Christening, marriages and deaths in MA, VA and NC for any record of her. There is none.

None of these trees or any of the numerous others I looked at are sourced for Mary Ramirez. They have everyone's source BUT Mary's a source for Mary. No actual birth for her, no marriage, no death, no bible records. The records attached to her were for the husband she was attached to. And to actually prove Mary Ramirez married a Bullard, a document from the Ramirez side that specifically states "my Daughter Mary, the wife of (Insert first Name) Bullard, or my Bullard grandchildren by my daughter Mary wife of (???) Bullard. The birthdate this is used on some as being Mar 1733 is the daughter of Isaac Bullard, not Mary Ramirez. Was she a Bullard who married a Ramirez, then remarried a Bullard. And if I have to search thru 7000 trees for 1 that has proper sourcing I will.
As for the DNA, it does not confirm in any manner Mary Ramirez. It only confirms that at that postition of your DNA you share a set of common ancestors. You could change the names to Ziggy Stardust and it would still match. Unless Mary Ramirez is actually proven to be the wife an ANY Bullard, regardless that thousands of trees have her, unless there is documentation on her, she is a myth.
I have DNA samples from descendants of 3 different children of Jamima Jane Bullard and John Davis . I'm looking for more. This line is proven from the Thomas Bullard bible, John and Jamima's marriage record, and subsequent census. I have downloaded the Bullard gedcoms at gedmatch and will sort thru them to find
While the bible doesn't prove absolutely that Henry and Mary are the parents of Thomas b. 1759, the names of the children of Thomas 1759, Easter Bullard Sessoms, and Penelope Bullard Hall does add weight. I'm not too worried about the names Thomas and Mary, I wish I had $1 for every Thomas and Mary in all my lines. But Henry, Penelope and Easter running together aren't all that common.
Henry and Mary had 4 children reported thru the work of W. Thomas Warren who haunted the court houses and archives of NC. Whether Mr Warren published his work is not known. I had the pleasure of being on a couple of Bullard chats with him and Spencer A. Bullard, who did publish his work online, but from what I can tell only worked on the descendants of William and Nathan. Mr. Warren claimed Henry and Mary's children to be William, Easter, Penelope, and Thomas. William was unmarried, he could not find any references to a wife and family. Easter m. Sessoms. Penelope m. Barnabus Hall, and Thomas m. Jamima Hall and Peggy Bryant.
Thomas b. 1759 names a daughter Easter who never married. His daughter Penny is the mother of the Atkinson children listed in the bible.
Thomas b. 1798 names a daughter Easter Mariah m. Sampson Davis who may or not be related to John Davis who m. Jamima Jane.
Jamima Jane m. John Davis named Easter Frances. And Jamima also names several of her children after her siblings.
Of most of trees I looked at had Husband Thomas b. 1733, they had daughter Penelope b. 1734. And if they had Oscar, they had him born in the early 1900s. But after all if its on Ancestry, its true right?
