    On 6:12:1659 [6 Feb 1659/60] "Ben. Woodroffe and Rebecca Canterbury" confessed to fornication before marriage. At June 1660 court, "Benjamin Woodrow and Rebeca Cantleburye" sentenced to be whipped or pay fine of 40 shillings [each]. [Note: daughter Mary was born 21 Apr 1660. There does not seem to be a record of the marriage. It is unclear if the continued use of Rebecca's maiden name indicates they were still not married, or if it reflects her name at the time of the crime.]
