Biography

The General Society of Mayflower Descendants (GSMD) and the Pilgrim Hopkins Heritage Society (PHHS) have provisionally accepted the identity of [1] 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]

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 three individuals listed under Mary, wife of Stephen Hopkins.[2] They all fall under the V Haplogroup[3] Names in bold font have mtDNA descendants who have mtDNA tested.
