  • Notes 
    • From FindaGrave:

      Mary, wife of Thomas Flegg
      Good reason to think her name was Underwood:

      At the Public Record Office in London is still preserved a list of one hundred and fifteen Norfolk persons who, between 8 April and 13 April 1637, were examined and licensed to pass to New England to inhabit and remain. They were to sail from Yarmouth, England, either in the ship John and Dorothy, Capt. William Andrews, Sen., master, or in the ship Rose, Capt. William Andrews, Jr., master. Thomas Flege, aged 21 years, and possably his future wife, Marable Vnderwood, aged 20 years, were listed along with another man, Isacke Hartt, aged 22 years, as servants of passenger Richard Caruear of Skratby in the County of Norff, aged 60 years, and Grace his wife, aged 40 years, who had with them their two daughters, Elizabeth and Susanna, twins, aged 18 years. (This information may be found in Exchequer, Kings Rembrancer, Licenses to Pass beyond the Seas, No. 21, Public Record Office, London. It was found in a book by Ernest Flagg, Genealogical Notes on Founding of New England, p. 438.)

      Mary, whose maiden name has not been proven, but a strong indication is that it was Underwood, married Thomas Flagg about 1640, judging from the birth of their first child. The record of their marriage has not been found, but was probably in Watertown. Thomas & Mary had either eleven or twelve children, the birth of William not being recorded, but he fits between Thomas & Michael. All were born in Watertown, Massachusetts.

      There is a record at Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England of a Mary Underwood, daughter of Edmund and Elizabeth, being baptised on October 19, 1619
