Paper Trail
First Generation
Priscilla (maiden name unknown) was born circa 1560 likely in Somersetshire, England and died at Wrington, Somerset 21 Dec 1657. She married Alexander Carpenter bef 1582. They had eight children: Nathaniel (1582-1584), Julian (1583/4), Alice (c1589), Joan (1590), Ann (1592), Annis/Agnes (1593), Mary (1595/6) and Priscilla (1598).
Second Generation
Julian Carpenter was baptized Bath St. James, Somerset 7 Mar 1583/4 and died Plymouth 19 Feb 1665. She married twice, first Leiden 23 Jul 1612 George Morton (II) and second, New Plimouth 1627 Manasseh Kempton (no children). By her first husband, Julian had seven children: Nathaniel (1613), Patience (c1615), John (c1616), Sarah (1618), Julian (1620), Joseph (1620) and Ephraim (c1623). The family emigrated on the Anne in 1623 to New Plimouth Colony.
Alice Carpenter was born about 1590[1] in England, the daughter of Alexander Carpenter.[2] She was married twice, first in Leiden, Holland, 28 May 1613, to Edward Southworth, then at New Plimouth 14 Aug 1623 to Gov. William Bradford. Alice died at Plymouth on 26 Mar 1670.[3] By her first husband, Alice and Edward Southworth had two sons, Constant and Thomas. By her second husband, Alice and Gov. William Brewster had three children: William, Mercy and Joseph.
Agnes Carpenter was born about 1592[4] and was buried at Pieterskerk, Leiden 3 Jul 1615.[5] She married Leiden 24 Apr 1613 (as his second wife) Samuel Fuller. They had a child who was buried at Pieterskerk, Leiden on 29 Jun 1615.
Julian, Alice and Agnes had sisters Mary and Priscilla, so it may be possible to discover her mtDNA from her sisters' matrilineal descendants.
Third Generation
Patience Morton was born in Leiden abt 1615 and died Plymouth 16 Aug 1691. She married Plymouth bef 1633 John Faunce and they had eight children (Plymouth): Priscilla (1634 m Joseph Warren), Mary (c1638 m William Harlow), Patience (c1640 m John Holmes), Sarah (1645 m Edward Doty (II) & John Buck), Thomas (1647), Elizabeth (1648-1649), Mercy (1651 m Nathaniel Holmes) and Joseph (1653).
Mercy Bradford was born in new Plimouth by May 1627.[6] She married Plymouth 21 Dec 1648 Benjamin Vermayes of Boston.[7] Neither Mercy, nor any of her children, were mentioned in Gov. Bradford's 1657 will, so it is assumed she died shortly after marriage, with no surviving children.
