• Notes

  The Genealogy of the Benedicts in America by Henry Marvin Benedict. (Albany, New York: Joel Munsell, 1870) identifies her as a daughter of Thomas Andrews, son of Robert and Elizabeth Andrews of Ipswich. But Robert Charles Anderson, in volume 1 of The Great Migration: Immigrants to New England 1634-1635, page 54, points out that this Thomas Andrews died unmarried on 10 Jul 1683. Both Savage and Jacobus (the latter in History and Genealogy of the Families of Old Fairfield identify this Rebecca as a daughter of Francis Andrews.
