Mary Partridge, daughter of John Partridge and Hannah Seabury, was born in 1693 in Duxbury. She died in Windham, Connecticut on 9 Sep 1743.

Mary married Jonathan Brewster on March 6, 1710 in Duxbury. Jonathan Brewster, son of Wrestling Brewster and his wife Mary, was born before 1685 at Duxbury in the Plymouth Colony, and died on 24 November 1753 in Windham, Connecticut.

NB: Mary's stepmother, Mary Callis Brewster Partridge, became her mother-in-law. MCBP was first married to Wrestling Brewster, Jonathan's father.
