About 1st wife of John Maynard

Elizabeth was the first wife of John Maynard and the mother of his son, John, who came to america with his father.

From http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=82929281

There were two men named John Maynard in early New England. One settled in Duxbury and was a carpenter. He married Mary, a daughter of Comfort Starr. The other John Maynard came from County Cambridge, England with a son named John who was born about 1626. This would put John senior's birth befrore 1605. This John from Cambridge either came to New England with a wife who died soon after, or he was a widower, his wife having died in England. John from Cambridge, England, who was a husbandman and brewer, settled in Sudbury. In fact, he was one of the settlers who went to Sudbury Plantation in 1638 or 1639. His home of four acres was located in what is now Wayland at the junction of Old Mill Road (South St.) and Northwest Row (North St.), the road to Concord, adjacent to the homelot of Henry Rice. He was one of the 47 who shared in the division of Sudbury meadows in 1639.
