↑ Source:Essex Genealogist (Massachusetts) (Essex Society of Genealogists), "Nicholas Potter of Lynn and His Descendants", by June (Butler) Miller, Vol. 19, p. 147, says Elizabeth married Joseph Jenks with no further details. It cites NEHGR, "The Floyd Family of Rumney Marsh", by C. Harold Floyd, Vol. 63, p. 247, but that source says she married Samuel Jenks. The warrant to divide Joseph Floyd's real estate, dated 25 Jan 1710 says the thirds go to "Elizabeth ffloyd the dec'd Widow, but now the wife of Samuel Jincks", solving the confusion.
