Generation: 1

  1. 1.  JACKSON Susannah was born about 1593 in Redenhall, Norfolk, England; died on 01 Oct 1680 in Marshfield, Essex County Co., MA.

    Notes:

    During the crossing of the Mayflower, Susanna was pregnant with her second son, Peregrin, who was born on the Mayflower a month after it's arrival.
    He was the first white child to be born in New England.

    Susanna became a widow in February, 1621, three months after their arrival on the Mayflower. She became the first colony bride in May, marrying Edward Winslow, A Mayflower passenger who had lost his wife a few weeks before.

    At least five children were born to Susanna and Edward Winslow.
    About 1638, the Winslows with young Peregrine and resolved White, moved to Green Harbor, now called Marshfield. Edward Winslow rose to prominence as Governor of Plymouth colony, became Colony representative to England, and at last was persuaded to use his diplomatic skills for Oliver Cromwell, heading up a joint commission with the Dutch to award reparations for damage caused to Danish ships. Interesting though it may be to imagine Susanna sharing those years in London with him, hostess to officials from various governments, no evidence has been found to indicate that she accompanied her husband on any of his trips to England. One of the few extant documents mentioning her by name is a "Bill of Sale" in which :Susanna Winslow, wife of Mr. Edward Winslow of Marshfield and his Agent in this time of his Absence in England" sold for ten years the services of an Indian man. The agreement was dated 12 Nov. 1647.

    Edward spent the last six years of his life in England. His will in 1654 as a resident of London, leaves his land in New England to son, Josiah, "hee allowing to my wife a full third parte thereof for her life also." if Susanna were living in London at that time, it would have been natural to provide for her there as well.

    No further record of Susanna has been found. She must have died before 1675 when her son, Josiah Winslow made no proviso for her in his will, although he made bequests to numerous relatives and friends. This surely refutes the claim of some that she died in Marshfield within two weeks of Josiah's death in 1680. It seems strange that this woman who was the wife of one colony governor and mother of another, first Plymouth colony bride and mother of the famed Peregrine White, should have left no record of her passing in town, church, court or press.
