For more information see: Woodworth-Barnes, Esther Littleford (ed. by Alicia Crane Williams), Mayflower Family Through Five Generations, Vol. 16 Alden. Names in bold font have mtDNA descendants who have mtDNA tested.
First Generation
Almost nothing is known about Alice, wife of William Mullins. We are not even certain she was the mother of all/some/none of the children of William Mullins. The only mention of her (given) name was in her husband's 1621 will and she died shortly after him, in the general sickness during the winter of 1621.[1]
Noted Mayflower researcher, Caleb Johnson, published in the Mayflower Quarterly[2] his research on William Mullins and his wife or wives. While Johnson was not able to prove his findings, he developed a tantalizing hypothesis from his research. Johnson believes William Mullins may have been married twice: His first wife was possibly Elizabeth, daughter of John Wood and Joan Taylor. Elizabeth is believed to have been the mother of all of Williams' children. After her death, William possibly married Alice _____ Browne, widow of either William Browne (and therefor mother of Mayflower passenger Peter Browne) or possibly William's brother, Thomas Browne.
William had five children: William, Elizabeth, Sarah, Priscilla and Joseph. Joseph never married and while William married and had a daughter, she never had any children.
Second Generation
Elizabeth Mullins was baptized at Holy Trinity Church, Guildford, Surrey on 11 Nov 1598. She likely died young as she was not mentioned in the nuncupative will of her father (1621). Her sister Sarah was called "eldest daughter" in this will.
Sarah Mullins was born about 1600. Her father's 1621 probate record calls her "Sare Blunden alias Mullins" so she was then married to _____ Blunden. No further record.
Priscilla Mullins[3] was born about 1602, likely at either Dorking or Guildford, both in co. Surrey, England. She came over on the Mayflower along with her parents and brother Joseph. All of the Mullins family died during the winter of 1621 with the exception of Priscilla. Since she was not named in the 1623 land division, she was at that time already married to John Alden.[4] The Aldens were among the first to move away from the original settlement and founded what is now Duxbury (likely before 1630).[5] Priscilla died sometime after 1651 but before her husband's death in 1687.[6] John and Priscilla had ten children, four sons & six daughters (Elizabeth, Sarah, Mary [unmarried in 1688], Priscilla [unmarried in 1688], Ruth & Rebecca).
Third Generation
Elizabeth Alden (c1623-1717) married William Pabodie[7]. They had thirteen children (two sons & eleven daughters: Elizabeth, Mary, Mercy, Martha, Priscilla (1652-1652), Priscilla, Sarah, Ruth, Rebecca, Hannah and Lydia.

- ↑ Only two contemporary records give Priscilla's name. The first was her father's will (where she was named) and the second was the list of Mayflower passengers made by Gov. William Bradford in 1651.
- ↑ It is said they were the third couple married in Plymouth Colony. The first couple was the widow Edward Winslow to the widower Susanna (Jackson) White. Francis Eaton married his second wife, Dorothy about the same time as the marriage of Priscilla Mullins to John Alden. It is currently unknown which couple was married first, or if they were possibly married at the same time.
- ↑ It has been said this new settlement came in stages with folks living out in the new location (where they had more land to farm) during the planting and harvest seasons, then moving back to the main settlement after the harvest. Gradually, folks began to stay at the new settlement year-long.
- ↑ Tradition states she attended the funeral of Josiah Winslow in 1680, but no contemporary record of her attending this funeral exists.
- ↑ later male line descendants changed the surname to Peabody
- ↑ Some sources state she had two more husbands: second Isaac Averill and third Michael Sprague, but her death record was under Priscilla Wiswall.
- ↑ Other sources state she died 1734
mtDNA Results H6a1a9 +204C 6182A
The Mayflower DNA Project lists three matrilineal (all female line) descendants of Priscilla (and her mother Alice). All three have taken the full mtDNA test, which tests every single base pair of the mitochondrial DNA. All three fall under the H6a1a9 haplogroup. In addition, one individual (who has not joined the Mayflower DNA Project) has joined the Alden surname DNA Project has taken a full mtDNA test and has also given the project administrator private access to their Coding region results. Plugging in their differences from the rCRS (NOT the RSRS differences) into James Lick's mtDNA haplogroup tool documents the following additional mutations from the H6a1a9 haplogroup: 204C and 6182A. It is likely a future update of the mtDNA Haplogroup tree will create a subclade with these mutations.[1]
Lineage of descendants
The Mayflower Descendant 66[2018]:23-30 has an article documenting seven mtDNA lines of descent from Priscilla Mullins.

Other mtDNA matches
Family Tree DNA documents a small number of exact mtDNA matches with folks who list their Most Distant Known Matrilineal ancestor as someone other than Priscilla MULLINS Alden. It is possible some of them may descend from Priscilla, but it is likely most of them descend from some currently unknown matrilineal ancestor of Priscilla. Further research in these mtDNA matches may help in identifying the mother of Priscilla.
In this regard, the possible identification (by noted Mayflower researcher Caleb Johnson) of William Mullins possibly marrying twice, with his first wife possibly being a daughter of John Wood and Joan Taylor may be a key. John and Joan Wood also had a daughter Mary Wood, who married John Hussey. John and Mary Hussey were the parents of Christopher Hussey (an early emigrant to New Hampshire). It is possible a sister (or female cousin) of Christopher Hussey may also have emigrated to New England.
- ↑ One of them has two additional mutations (309.2C & C16234T) which must have occurred somewhere in this individual's maternal line of descent.
