Notes

From http://ntgen.tripod.com/bw/youngs_index.html#origins

Mary (Warren) Youngs refers to "Mary Yongs" as "my daughter" in her will of 1678. This apparently refers to Mary Warren's daughter from a previous marriage, Mary Gardiner, who married her step-son, John Youngs, ie Mary (Gardiner) Youngs. The 'Marey' of the ship's list appears to be "Mary", wife of Edward Petty and  died in 1671 before Mary Warren made her will in 1678

Will of Thomas Warren names Mary Gardiner, his granddaughter < link >
