Prudence Peck

Robert Peck (c.1566 to?) and Prudence Brewster (c.1570 in Scrooby, Nottinghamshire Co., England to?) Married: 6 15 1589 in Sutton cum Lound, Nottinghamshire Co., England [or was this marriage date for Robert Peck and June Junyver?]

From http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=16195888

The register of St. Pancras church, Leyden, records the burial on Saturday, 20 June 1609, of a child of William BREWSTER. The age and sex of the child are not specified. (Comment - It might be reasonable to assume that the "child of William BREWSTER" who was buried, 20 June 1609, was Prudence (BREWSTER) PECK, dau. of William BREWSTER, Sr. and wife of Robert PECK, since her brother, Elder William BREWSTER appeared in court eight days earlier as guardian of Prudence's minor daughter, Ann PECK.) -

NEHGS 124:251 John Hunt cited NEHGR 111:319-320

"Prudence [? married Robert Peck of Everton, Notts; they had Robert and Anne, both wards of their supposed uncle William Brewster at Ledyen].

Robert Peck was first married to June Jenyver: Marriage at Lounde: 15 Jun 1589 Robert Pecke and June Jenyver.

Robert Pecke’s will, dated and proved in 1598, is preserved at York.

It States: "I Robert Pecke of Everton, husbandman,... my body to buried in the churchyard of Everton... I give the poor of Everton 3/4. I give William Pecke my son 7/6/8. I give George Pecke, my son , the same. I give Ann Pecke my daughter the same. I give Thomas Hodgson 10/- bequeathed to my mother. I give Thomas Sympson half a rood of Rye. I give Hercules Moore 12d. I give Robert Pecke my eldest son a couple of black stears. I give Prudence my wife and Robert my son all residue and make them executors. I make Richard Perkin guardian of my son Robert during his minority.

Witness Anthony Phan, clerke, Richard Harrison, and William Fletcher".

• did Prudence (Brewster) Peck die in Notts or Leiden? I would to think she and her children were with the crowd of Pilgrim women & children who suffered so, trying to get to the Netherlands, and that she had her own share of the strong mindedness of the Brewsters to help.
• were the children (all) hers or her husband's by a previous marriage?
