Burial:

The 7th entry on Page 6 of the "Baptisms-Marriage-Burials 1643-1733: record book of the Penistone church, documents the burial of "Vidiea" [Widow] Wainwright, on February 24,1645/6

Since she is noted as a vidiea [widow] we know she was married, but we have no hint as to who she was married to, how old she was when she died, or even what her first name was.

Note that, in 1645, an outbreak of plague killed 1,325 people in Leeds. 1
