Mary White's birth date and place are not known. Her family arrived in New Jersey by 1667 so she must have been born wherever they came from (would have been under 13 when married in 1680 if born in New Jersey). Her father is thought to have come to New Jersey from Southampton, LI.
She was married on 26 Apr 1680 in Elizabethtown, Essex, East New Jersey to John Littell or Little.[1]
She died shortly before 20 August 1715, when her will was probated -- "Little, Mary, widow of John, of Elizabeth town".[2]
