  • Notes 
    • Mary Winchester, the wife of John Aldis, was probably the widow of Jonathan Winchester, who joined the Roxbury Church in 1677 and died two years later in Roxbury. Mary, the widow of Jonathan Winchester, was received into full communion in 1681.

      From NEHGR, 1924, Vol. 78, p. 10 and 11.

      Jonathan Wiinchester, son of John, died 8 May 1678/9. He married Mary___, who married secondly, at Wrentham, 23 May 1682, John Aldis, by whom she had one son and five daughters. John and Mary Aldis lived five years in Wrentham and afterwards in West roxbury, near the Dedham line. (Cf. Register, Vol. 4, p. 85, and Dedham Historical Register, Vol. 14, p. 62 for the Aldis family.)

      Mary Winchester, widow of Jonathan, was appointed 29 April, 1679 administratrix of the estate of her late husband, which was appriased at L30. 7s. 6d. and consisted chiefly of 8 acres of land at Muddy River.

      Three entries in the Roxbury church records are as follows

      "1677 month 3 day 6 Jonathan Winchester, Mary his wife, both received to land hold on the Covenant"
      "1679 month 1 day 8 Jonathan Winchester, died of a feav."
      "1681-1-27 Mary widdow Winchester this day received to the full comunion of the Church."

      They had one child, Mary, born after 1671, as under her grandfathers will of 1691 she was to receive 8 or 10 acres of land at Muddy River "when shee shall accomplish the age of 20 years."
