Katherine Slarkes of Woking, Surry

Not the same as Katherine Collins

Note: Katherine Slarkes was not married to George Allen that immigrated to Massachusetts Bay Colony with the Rev Joseph Hull Company on 6 May 1635 from England. That woman died in Sandwich, Plymouth Colony.

NOTE: Although one commonly sees postings and family write-ups that indicate that our George Allen is the George Allen who married as his second wife, Katherine Starkes, on 5 November 1624 in All Hallows Church, Honey Lane, London, I know of absolutely no documentation that would support that this is our George Allen. On the contrary, there is evidence that indicates that that George Allen was the son of Richard Allen of the Tower of London, and that he was still residing in London, England as late as 1640 when he was mentioned in the will of his brother, Henry Allen. That George Allen is also believed to be the same George Allen who died at St. Michael Queenhithe, London on 26 March 1664.) 04 Nov 1624 George Allen, of St Michael, Queenhithe, London, Clothworker, & Katherine Slarks, Spinster, dau. of [blank] Slarks, decd; at All Hallows, Honey Lane, London.
