Person:Elizabeth Gregory (40)

Disputed Lineage

Bouton-Boughton Farnham Families (1949) indicates that the Elizabeth who married Matthew Marvin, and whose first child was baptized in 1622, was likely a daughter or granddaughter of Henry Gregory. From this, some researchers equate Elizabeth Gregory, wife of Seth Grant and Richard Webb, with Elizabeth, wife of Matthew Marvin. It is unlikely that they were the same person - see the Talk page of Elizabeth, wife of Matthew Marvin.
