About Mary Herbert

http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=alvispat1... 81

From Genforum: The 'Herbert/Willoughby connection' certainly was... the entire subject of Ms. Walter's book which I had mentioned. ('Willoughby 1483-1800's in England, Barbados & Lower Tidewater Virginia,' by Alice Granbery Walter,1978; second printing 1983.) A direct quote from her on the title page states, 'The contents of this book are the result of a study of the Willoughby family in Lower Norfolk County in order to resolve the relationship between Captain Thomas Willoughby's Family and John Herbert's Family.' She asserts that Thomas Willoughby of the Southern Branch had been identified and other 'facts' proven as a result. The 'facts' to which she referred as being proven are these:

Capt. Thomas Willoughby's son, Thomas Willoughby, Jr. had a child by his father's maidservant, Mary Bennett; the name of the child was Thomas Willoughby. Mary Bennett was then married to John Herbert (alias Wilkinson) and they had further children, John Herbert II and Richard Herbert.

p.44. Certificate for 800 acres to Tho Willoughby Junior for transporting: Mary Bennett, John Muckeallen, Allexander Bell, William Fell, John Bell, Paul Trigge, John Gore, Grace Trigge, Joseph Toogood, John Savvidge, Peter Banden, Daniel Snoddy, James Wickard, Mathewe Hancocke, Richard Draper, George Hill.
