Notes

Source: "The Mother of Elder William Brewster of the Mayflower" by John G. Hunt, NEHGR 125:250 (1970). The fact that she was not mentioned in the will of John Smythe of Hull, 1592, and that fact that he did mention nearly every one of his nieces and nephews, suggests that she had no further children after William, and thus probably died soon after 1566.
