summary
Probably the wife of Robert Lord of Ipswich for almost fifty-three years from about 1630, and the mother of Robert Lord (d. 1696). She was perhaps a daughter of Samuel Waite and Mary Ward, which would make her a niece of Rev. Nathaniel Ward, author of The Simple Cobler of Aggawam.

As for her father. This would make her a niece of Rev. Nathaniel Ward, author of The Simple Cobler of Aggawam.

Wife of Robert Lord of Ipswich for almost fifty-three years; Hammatt (p. 208) gives the marriage as 1630. Her husband's will "bequeathes to her all his estate during her life" (Hammatt). Mollie (pp. 107-108) makes her a daughter of Samuel Waite and Mary Ward, and so a niece of Rev. Nathaniel Ward, author of The Simple Cobler of Aggawam; her own basis is "Candler's Pedigree of Ward in the Bodleian," and no primary record supports it. A plausible context for Mollie's Waite and Ward claim: Rev. John Ward's widow Susan married Richard Rogers of Wethersfield, Essex, the Waite home. The Waite "rank" lore and the regicide Thomas Waite have no connection to her.

Open questions

  • Her parents: the Ward pedigree Mollie cites and the Wethersfield, Essex, parish registers. The colonial tree marks the Waite and Ward descent as tradition; the page has it as compiled (online trees), possible.
