Wife of Robert Peck of Beccles and mother of Joseph Peck (bp. 1587), per Ira Peck. Mollie Pfeiffer gives Robert's wife as "---- Norton."

Her husband's will (March 1592/3) made her "sole executrix" and left her his houses and lands at Beccles and Barsham for life, with power to sell his woods or meadows in Barsham. It asked her to have care of their children "And also of Joane Babb & Elisabeth Babb" (Ira Peck pp. 21-23), presumably her kin (inference).
