Background

Biography

The General Society of Mayflower Descendants (GSMD) and the Pilgrim Hopkins Heritage Society (PHHS) have provisionally accepted the identity of Mary Kent, daughter of Robert Kent & Joan Machell of Hursley, Hants, as the first wife of Stephen Hopkins. This identification was first proposed by by Simon Neal in a couple of Mayflower Quarterly articles.[1] Caleb Johnson also stated this identification was probable.[2]

Stephen & Mary were married about 1603, likely at the parish church in Hursley. They had children baptized (at Hursley) 13 May 1604 (Elizabeth), 11 May 1606 (Constance), and 30 Jan 1607/8 (Giles).[3] Mary was buried at Hursley on 9 May 1613.[4]

The Mayflower Quarterly (Plymouth, MA: The General Society of Mayflower Descendants), March 2013, vol. 79, no. 1. This identity is not 100% verified, but has much supporting evidence.

mtDNA Results V

According to "The Mayflower Quarterly"[1], three matrilineal (all female line) descendants from three of the four known daughters of Constance (Hopkins) Snow: viz: Sarah (Snow) Walker, Ruth (Snow) Cole, and Mary (Snow) Paine, all were mtDNA tested and they all came up matching each other. The FamilyTreeDNA Mayflower Project currently has four individuals listed under Mary, wife of Stephen Hopkins.[2] They all fall under the V Haplogroup[3]

  2. ↑ Only one of the four lists Mary as their mtDNA ancestor.
  3. ↑ One of the three individuals only had the HVR I tested. It is unknown if any of the others had full mtDNA testing, or only HVR I&II testing. Coding region results are not listed on the FTDNA website for privacy reasons.
  4. ↑ Pilgrim Hall Museum Nicholas and Constance Snow biography.
  5. ↑ The Nicholas Snow baptized at St. Leonard's, Shoreditch, London on 25 Jan 1599/1600 was buried there on 28 Jan. The birth/baptism and parentage for Nicholas Snow who emigrated to Massachusetts is currently unknown.
  6. ↑ More than a few sources state one of the other three children was a daughter Constance who married Deacon Daniel Doane, but mtDNA testing of two supposed "umbilical" descendants of this line did not match the known mtDNA of Constance and her mother (The Mayflower Quarterly Fall 2019, p. 40). Also private correspondence with Christopher Child, Genetices Editor for Newbury Street Press and Editor of Mayflower Descendant.
  7. ↑ She was NOT the wife of John Walker of Virginia, as many have claimed.
