About Martha Wynne

Hannah, wife of Jarvis Wingfield, is usually identified as the daughter of Thomas Wynne and Agnes Stith. BUT, if this is true, that means that Hannah's daughter Martha would've married her uncle, Thomas Wynne II (also a child of Thomas Wynne and Agnes Stith) -- not a legal possibility! In addition, Hannah was not listed as an heir in Thomas Wynne's will.”


https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Llewellyn-2

Martha who married Thomas Wynne ll was the daughter of Jarvis Wingfield and Hannah (Wynne? Stith? Llewellyn? not certain but probably a relative to the Wynnes). Jarvis (1669-1756) was the son of William Wingfield who died 1676 in Charles City (today's Prince George County) and his wife a Miss Dix, daughter of Jarvis Dix (b. 1616, immigrated by 1636).

IMPORTANT RESEARCH THAT PROVES THAT THOMAS WYNNE WAS MARRIED TO MARTHA WINGFIELD, NOT MARTHA LLEWELLYN.
