  • Notes 
    • "the Torrey book, as well as the two supplements to it, so I took a look for you:"

      Pg. 493 - MARVIN, Matthew (1600-1680) & 1/wf Elizabeth [?GREGORY]; b 1623; Hartford/Norwalk
      MARVIN, Matthew (1600-1680) & 2/wf Alice [BOUTON] (1610-1680), w John; ca 1647; Hartford/Norwalk

      Pg. 788 - WEBB, Richard (1580-1665) & 1/wf Grace WILSON; in Eng, May 1610; Cambridge/Boston WEBB, Richard ( - 1665) & 2/wf Elizabeth [GREGORY]/BUCHARD?/GRANT ( - 1680); b 1635; Cambridge/etc.

      So, he evidently saw something that led him to believe that the Elizabeth who married Matthew MARVIN might have been a GREGORY, but he was uncertain. He certainly didn't mention who her father was. Neither supplement mentioned MARVIN or WEBB. You can order the microfilm of Torrey's original manuscript, which contains his notes, through your local Mormon library. Then you can check to see what led Torrey to suspect she may have been a GREGORY.

      In Pope's __Pioneers of Massachusetts__ pg. 303-304, under MARVIN it says "Matthew, husbandman, ae. 35, with wife Elizabeth, ae. 31, (children) Elizabeth ae. 13, Matthew, ae. 8, Marie, ae. 6, Sarah, ae. 3, and Hannah , ae. 1 1/2 yr., came in the Increase April 15, 1635." No source for this information is listed, but it sounds like it came from a passenger list.

      Pope had nothing much under GREGORY, nor did Savage. Torrey evidently found information to dispute Savage's dates for Matthew, since Savage said that Matthew died in 1687 but Torrey said 1680.

      So, it sounds as if there is no definitive reason to say Elizabeth was a GREGORY, although it is possible. You'd best check out Torrey's notes on microfilm.
