Research Notes:

Charles Stedman Ripley mistates the name of Mary Hunt's father as John rather than Thomas Hunt and her mother as Mary rarther than Margaret, but does note that Mary's mother "was a daughter of John Webster, one of the first settlers of Hartford, and the fifth governor of the Colony of Connecticut." In a footnote, Ripley suggests that a Thomas Hunt who was with Captain John Smith in his voyage to New England in 1614 may have been an ancester of Mary's family, but no connection to this Thomas Hunt is known.
