Note on Husband: William * HILTON
Born by about 1591, based on estimated date of marriage, son of William Hilton of Northwich, Cheshire. Came from London to Plymouth Colony in 1621 on the "Fortune." Died between June 1655 and 30 June 1656.
Married: (1) By 1616 _____ _____, who came with two children to Plymouth in 1623 on the Anne; she died by about 1636.
(2) By about 1636 Frances _____, born about 1618 (deposed on 27 February 1687/8, aged about seventy, regarding events that had taken place forty-six years earlier involving William Hilton, citing York Court Files]). She survived him and married again by 30 June 1656 Richard White. (In a footnote in his MPCR series, Charles Thornton Libby remarked: "This woman's [Frances's] court records serve to illustrate the social distinctions of the period. While married to Mr. William Hilton she was always entitled `Mistress,' even when called into court for rude behavior, but after his death and upon her marriage to Goodman Richard White, she promptly dropped to `Goody'" He had 4 children with his 1st wife & 4 with his 2nd.
