Mary Phippen, bp. at Hingham in 5 Mar 1643/4 married first to John Wallis of Falmouth, Maine. Their nine Wallis children and their many descendants are treated in detail by John Bradley Arthaud[John Bradley Arthaud,"The John Wallis Family of Cape Ann" NEHGR (1998) 152:286-310, 391-414; 153(1999):29-51,183-206,293-318].

His widow Mary and son Josiah Wallis gave administration bond on 29 Mar 1691, with her brother David Phippen as surety. Mary Phippen married second by 25 July 1692 Samuel Morgan. On 24 July 1692 the First Church of Beverly recorded that Mary Morgan was "recieved to or communion by letter of dismission from Gloster church," "Mary Morgan alias Phipen" was named in an agreement of her three brothers, dated 15 Jan. 1694/95, which refers to her receipt of her father's bequest. The agreement also stated that the care of their mother, Docus, was provided by her brother David Phippen [Essex Deeds 10:114, 15 January 1694/95]. Mary married third at Beverly 18 Aug 1700 [intentions] John Black of Beverly, and 'there lived until har deth" according to a next door neighbor, in a depostion given 70 years later.
