- The Wentworth connection although it occurred before the settlement of the colonies, is yet of sufficient interest to justify an account. Geoffrey Gates, the great-grandfather of the immigrant, Stephen Gates, wa married to Joan Wentworth; no dates are given, but as Stephen was born about 1605, the marriage of his great-grandfather must have occurred about 1550. The parentage of his wife, Joan Wentworth, is not given in any book accessible in the library of the New England Historical and Genealogical Society. However, certain intermarriages of the families of Gates, Wentworth, and Josselyn are known and from them can be inferred the relationship of Joan. .....
- Pg. 159
- .... Sir Thomas's sister, 'Joan Josselyn, was maried to Sir Nicholas Wentworth about 1524; the sons of this marriage are listed in the Wentworth genealogy, and one daughter --- no Joan; but the list may be incomplete. The eldest son was Peter, born 1524; a third son, Paul, born 1534; obviously there were daughter between; the eldest would be likely to bear the name of her mother Joan and would have been born in or about the year 1530', a date which exactly fits the wife of Geoffrey Gates. .....
