Mary Hussey

It is also possible that her maiden name was Woodin.

It is presumed that Mary accompanied her son and daughter-in-law on their voyage to America, however she may have come later with other Puritans.

Among the grantees of Hampton, NH, were "Christo" Hussey and a widow, Mary Hussey, the latter resumed to have been the widow of John Hussey of Dorking. It is believed that this Christo was Christopher Hussey, son of John and Mary and that Mary the widow was his mother. They resided on opposite sides of the meeting house green in Hampton, the 5 acre house lot of the widow being about the present site of the town house.

In 1650, seats in the meeting house were assigned to "ould mistris husse and her dafter husse." No record of a daughter appears further; it is presumed that this refers to the wife or daughter of Mary's son Christopher [Genealogical and Family History of the State of New Hampshire, Vol. IV, p. 1918].
