Background

Biography

Almost nothing is known about Mary, the second wife of Peter Browne. She married Peter about 1629 (by 1631) and survived her husband by at least one year.[1]

Peter and Mary had two children; a child who died young and Rebecca.

Second Generation

Rebecca Browne was born in Plymouth about 1631. She married about 1654 to William Snow.[2] William and Rebecca had eight children; four sons and four daughters (Mary [never married], Lydia [never married], Hannah and Rebecca.

Third Generation

Hannah Snow was born about 1664. She married twice, first to Giles Rickard about 1683 and second to Joseph Howes in 1713/4. All of her children were by her first marriage.


Rebecca Snow was born about 1671. She married 1689 to Samuel Rickard.


  1. Plymouth Colony Records 1:28 (dated 27 Mar 1634), but was probably dead by 1647 when one of her daughters sold her father's land without referring to the widow's dower rights. (TGMB I:261). Roser's Mayflower Passenger References (p. 156) states an article in the Mayflower Quarterly 53:13 questioned whether she married second, James Lendall of Duxbury, but concluded this was unlikely.
  2. Plymouth Colony Land Records 5:197
