Biography
Many genealogists have been searching for the identity of the wife of James Chilton. The only clue we currently have is recorded in the 1840 History of Bridgewater, Massachusetts by Hon. Nahum Mitchell. The book reported the given name of Mrs. Chilton as Susanna. When Nathaniel B. Shurtleff later asked Judge Mitchell about the source of this information, Mitchell stated he could not recall, but believed he had "good authority" for calling her Susanna. It must be noted Mitchell erred in the identification of other settler's wives, so his claim regarding the given name of the wife of James Chilton may similarly be in error.[1]
James and his wife were married about 1583 presumably in or near Canterbury, Kent, England where their older children were baptised.[2]
James came over on the Mayflower with his wife and only one of his children, youngest daughter Mary. James died on board the Mayflower while it was docked at Cape Cod Harbour (now Providence) on 8 Dec 1620. His widow died during the general sickness sometime during the winter of 1620/1.[3]

- ↑ Some have theorized where the wife may have been Susanna Furber, daughter of his step-mother (Isabell) by her first husband, Francis Furber. Susanna Furber was baptized 5 Nov 1573, so she was not old enough to have a child baptized in 1584.
- ↑ Their first known child, Joell was baptized at St. Paul's Canterbury on 16 Aug 1584. While this baptismal record does not name Joell's parents, his burial record states he was son of James Chilton.
- ↑ Mayflower passenger deaths 1620-1621
- ↑ or Nov 1667.
- ↑ NOT a descendant of Francis Cooke.
- ↑ Some sources state she married Joseph Henderson & Joseph Sparhawk. More research is needed.
mtDNA Results T2b90
Three matrilineal (all female line) descendants of Mary (Chilton) Winslow have taken a full mtDNA test and have their results posted in various Family Tree DNA Projects such as the Mayflower DNA Project.[1][2] FTDNA states they fall under the T2b haplogroup/clade with one additional mutation, T16288C. YFull T MTree has further refined the clade (with the additional mutation) as T2b90.[3] YFull also stated this haplogroup formed roughly 5,000 years before present (ybp) and has an estimated Time of Most Recent Common Ancestor (TMRCA) roughly 1700 ybp.
The three identified descendants descend from two different daughters [Mary (Winslow) Gray and Susanna (Winslow) Latham]. While it is not known whether any of these individuals have joined the General Society of Mayflower Descendants (GSMD), the fact they are exact mtDNA matches from two different daughters of Mary Chilton (wife of John Winslow) does provide an adequate level of "proof."[4]
The lineages of the three known matrilineal descendants are as follows:

mtDNA Descendants
While James Chilton and his wife had at least ten children (three sons and seven daughters) only the two daughters who came to Plymouth Colony (Mary and Isabella) have had their families traced. There is a real possibility of mtDNA descendants living in the Netherlands and/or England or somewhere else.
Second Generation
Isabella Chilton was the eldest surviving child, baptized at St. Paul's Cathedral, Canterbury, Kent, England on 15 Jan 1586/7. She married at Leiden 21 Jul 1615[1] to Roger Chandler.[2] While Roger & Isabella had one son (Samuel, who presumably died young) and three daughters (Sarah, Martha & Mary)[3], the most recent Mayflower "Silver Book"[4] documents only one female mtDNA descendant of the Sixth Generation[5]. This was Hannah Prisberry (Martha Smith, Mary Bundy, Martha Chandler, Isabella Chilton, (poss.) Susanna). Hannah was born at Taunton 1 Oct 1715.[6] Given the fact it is much more difficult to trace maternal lines than paternal lines, it is possible there are unidentified mtDNA descendants of Isabella living today.
Engeltgen (Ingle/Angelina) Chilton was baptized at St. Paul's Parish, Canterbury 29 Apr 1599. She married Leiden 27 Aug 1622 Robert Nelson of England. It is currently unknown whether they had any children.
Christian Chilton was baptized at St. Peter's Parish, Canterbury 26 Jul 1601. She married twice, first Leiden 16 May 1635 Joris Abrahamsz wo died soon and second, Leiden 17 Jan 1636 Dionys van Steenstraten. By this second marriage Christian had at least one son, Dionys.
Mary Chilton[7] was the youngest child, baptized at St. Peter's Church, Sandwich, Kent, England on 30 May 1607. She married at New Plimouth before the 1627 Cattle Division to John Winslow. They had ten children (one infant [sex unknown], six sons and three daughters [Susanna, Mary and Sarah])
Third Generation
Susanna Winslow was born about 1630 and died (East) Bridgewater between 31 Jul 1676 and 3 Oct 1683.[8] She married presumably at Plymouth about 1649 to Robert Latham. They had eight children: Mercy (1650), poss.Mary[9] (c1653 m. ___ Pollard) Susanna (c1656), James (c1659), Hannah, Joseph (c1663), Elizabeth (c1665) and Chilton (c1672). mtDNA descendants of both Mercy & Hannah have done Full mtDNA testing and are a perfect match to each other.
Mary Winslow was born Plymouth about 1632 and died there between 1664-1665. She married Plymouth 16 Jan 1650/1 [1] Edward Gray. They had six children (born Plymouth): Desire (1651), Mary (1653-b1681, never married), Elizabeth (c1656), Sarah (1659), John (1661) and Anna (c1664). A mtDNA descendant of daughter Mary has done full mtDNA testing and is an exact match to the two mtDNA descendants of Mary's sister, Susanna (Winslow) Latham.
Sarah Winslow was born Plymouth abt 1638 and died Boston 9 Apr 1726. She was married three times, her first marriage Boston 19 Jul 1660 to Myles Standish (II) (son of Mayflower passenger Myles Standish). The younger Myles died at sea after 20 Aug 1661[10] and the widow married 1665 Tobias Payne (Paine). He died Boston 12 Sep 1669 (only one son, William) and the widow married for a third time, about 1672 to Richard Middlecott. She had four children (born Boston): Mary (1674), Edward (c1676), Sarah (1678) and Jane (1682) by this last marriage.
