Biography

First Generation

Elizabeth is said to have been baptized at Baldock, Hertfordshire, England in Sep 1583[1] the daughter of Augustine Walker.[2] Elizabeth married Richard Warren at Great Amwell, Hertfordshire on 14 Apr 1610.[3] Their children were not baptized at Great Amwell (in fact, no baptismal records can be found for any of them) so it is possible the couple joined the Separatists faith and worshipped in secret with some currently unknown congregation.[4] Richard emigrated alone in 1620, and Elizabeth (with her daughters) emigrated in 1623 aboard the Anne. They remained at Plymouth, where Richard died in 1628. While Elizabeth survived her husband by almost fifty years, she never remarried and managed her estate independently.[5] She died at Plymouth on 12 Oct 1673[6] and was buried at Burial Hill.[7]

Richard and Elizabeth had seven children; two sons (both born in New Plimouth) and daughters Mary, Ann, Sarah, Elizabeth & Abigail (all born in England)[8]

Second Generation

They had eight children; two sons and six daughters (Rebecca, Mary, Sarah, Elizabeth, Lydia [born 8 Jun 1647] and Mercy [born 10 Mar 1650]).


Ann Warren[12] was born about 1612[13] She married at Plymouth 19 Apr 1633 to Thomas Little. The family moved to Marshfield where Ann died sometime after 19 Feb 1675/6. Thomas & Ann had nine children; 4 sons and five daughters (Abigail, Ruth [apparently never married], Hannah, Patience and Mercy).[14]


Sarah Warren was born before 19 Apr 1613[15] She married at Plymouth 28 Mar 1634 to John Cooke.[16] John and Sarah continued to live in Plymouth until about 1665, when they moved to Dartmouth. Ann died 25 Jul 1696. John & Ann had six children; one son and five daughters (Elizabeth, Sarah, Esther, Mary and Mercy).


Elizabeth Warren[17] was born about 1616. She married Richard Church before 7 Mar 1636/7.

mtDNA Results

The FTDNA Mayflower Project documents four mtDNA descendants of Elizabeth (Walker) Warren. All four have been assigned to the H1j haplogroup with the following HVR (Hyper Variable Regions aka Control Regions) mutations (from the RSRS): A16129G, T16187C, C16189T, T16223C, G16230A, T16278C, C16311T and G73A, C146T, C152T, C195T, A247G, 522.1A, 522.2C, 309.1C, 315.1C. According to Haplogroup.org the H1j haplogroup originated roughly 7,500 years ago, so it is a VERY ancient clade. Most H1j individuals would not be mtDNA descendants of Elizabeth, but all mtDNA descendants of Elizabeth must fall under H1j.[1]


Thus mtDNA testing cannot be used to conclusively prove someone was a mtDNA descendant of Elizabeth (Walker) Warren, but it can be used to conclusively disprove such a relationship. In addition, mtDNA testing can be used to support a conclusion about a line being descended from Elizabeth, but additional evidence is also needed.


  1. ↑ It is possible some of her mtDNA descendants may have picked up an additional mutation or two, which includes the possibility of a back mutation.
