Mary is shown in a personal note file of the late Martha CraryNesbitt, as being ALSO the daughter of a George MATTHEWS and anElizabeth WRIGHT. This George MATTHEWS is purported to be the son ofOliver MATTHEWS. Elizabeth, the daughter of a James WRIGHT (no otherdata).

This flies in the face of the descendency earlier recorded fromresearch, of Mary MATTHEWS from WIlliam MATTHEWS I (as shown). I haveno certain knowledge which is correct (JFN,1997)
