Disputed Origins & Locations

Mary's origins are not yet proven. The currently attached father is perhaps where the birth location of Dursley Parish, Gloucestershire, England was indicated. Place of baptism is uncertain, as is place of death. The only certain location is that reflected on the marriage record.

Webbe as a Family of Origin

Her maiden name listed on FamilySearch is Webb. Nicholas Webbe and Elinor (Waighte) Webbe were married in 1617 (note timing),[1] in Langley-Burrell, Wiltshire, who are shown as Mary Webb's parents on FamilySearch. A Laycock, Wiltshire baptismal record shows 10 May 1601, and her father as Nicholas Webbe.[2]
