      Mary also had a son John Yates , Jr. (1651) by her first husband John Yeates-Yates. This son married Deborah Kendrick and a grandson married Abigail Rogers, Mayflower Descendant . This information is easily located in the History of Eastham by Pratt, as well as the Genealogy of Richard Higgins by Catherine Higgins, and NE Marriages before 1700 by Torrey. The Higgins Genealogy also discusses the extended relationship with his stepson John Yates, JR.
