1. The publication "Search for the Passengers of the "Mary & John" 1630," by Burton W. Spear (Toledo, OH; The Mary & John Clearing House, 1989-2004), 18:63-64, "Ancestry of Mary Dolbiar (1607-1685) wife of Jonathan Gillett":
"Mary Dolbiar, was bpt. 7 June 1607, Colyton, Devon. She d. 5 Jan. 1685, Windsor, CT. She m. Jonathan Gillett, 29 Mar. 1633/4, Colyton, two days before they sailed to New England from Weymouth, Dorset, on the "Recovery of London". Since Colyton is about 30 miles west of Weymouth, maybe this ship made a stop at Plymouth, Devon (as did the "Mary & John" in 1630), 60 miles W. of Colyton and they boarded a week or so later. She was the dau. of Rawkey Dolbiar and Mary Michell. NOTE: All Dolbiar baptism, marriage and burial entries in the Colyton, Devon Parish Registers (1538-1630) appear in TAG 15: 212-213.
