Paper Trail
Elinor[1] was born about 1582[2] presumably in England and died aft 2 Mar 1642/3.[3] She married twice, first by 1604[4] to John Billington, then between 14-21 Sep 1638 to George Armstrong.[5]
By her first husband, Elinor and John Billington only had two sons: John & Francis. Elinor did not have any children by her second husband, Gregory Armstrong.
Summary of findings
It would appear that there are no known direct matrilineal descendants of Elinor, wife of John Billington. Since we do not even know her maiden name, there is no way to conduct mtDNA testing currently.
- ↑ History of Massachusetts biography of John Billington states (without any reference) where the wife of John Billington was Elinor Lockwood.
- ↑ Estimate, based on first child born about 1604.
- ↑ Mentioned in a deed PCR 12:93-4,
- ↑ First child's estimated birth.
- ↑ PCR 12:33,37
To do
