Jane, born in 1644, one year old on 27 May 1645 when Emmanuel bound her to Captain Francis Pott to serve him until the age of thirty-one. Like Elizabeth, she may not have been his natural daughter since her indenture stated that Emmanuel Driggers "bought and paid for to Capt. Robert Shepard." On 24 May 1652 when she was eight years old, Driggers paid Captain Pott for her freedom. In 1663 she had an illegitimate daughter, Sarah Landum, by an Irish freeman, Dennam Olandum [DW 1651-54, 82; Orders 1657-64, fol.179]. She married John Gussal about 1665. He died shortly afterwards, and in April 1666 she was charged in court with failing to prove his will. She had married William Harman by June 1666 when he submitted letters of administration on her first husband's estate [Orders 1664-7, fol.24, p.24].
