Notes
General:
She is identified by many as Elizabeth Mathews. Noone can produce a source for this notion. It sounds suspiciously like it came from the old notion that William was of the Devonshire Tuttle family and related to noblemen. His purported father had married an Elizabeth Mathews and purportedly had more than 40 children who all had high roles in the Elizabethan court.
More likely she was related to a Robert Hill family that tried to get custody of her youngest child, who William's widowed second wife did not seem to want.
William was so feudal he probably ate her premarital identity for breakfast the day after their wedding!
