    "Thomas2 Cutler … married 19 Mar 1659 Mary, daughter of Edward And Bridget Giles of Salem. Mrs. Giles [the mother] married for her second husband, _____ Very, and as his widow, January 14, 1669, bequeathed forty shillings to her daughter Mary Cutler."

    Cutler appears to have gotten the father situation exactly backwards. See Anderson.

    "In her will, dated 14 Jan 1668[/9], and proved 30 Nov 1680, 'Bregett Giles of Salem, widow,' bequeathed to son Samuell Very 20s.; to son Thomas Very 20s., to Mary Cutler of Reading the wife of Thomas Cutler 40s., to 'Briegett Very the daughter of my son Thomas Very' a cow at eighteen or at marriage, to 'my son Eliazer Gilles' one ten acre lot 'which sometime belonged to Goodman Addams of Nuberie of whom my husband brought it' and some meadow adjoining; and to 'my son John Geiles' the residue [EPR 3:398-99]."

    Both the order of the will and the fact that births of Edward's children are recorded, suggest she was a child of Mr. Very.
