  • Notes 
    • "The reason for thinking that Miriam Short the elder, mother of the other three Shorts, was on [the Welcome] is found in [Isaac] Ingram's will where she is described as 'late deceased,' a phrase peculiarly appropriate if she had started the voyage and then succumbed to the smallpox. She may well have been the Miriam Short, Quaker, of Kingsbury, Warwickshire, who in 1663 was presented in the Episcopal Visitation for not attending church." [The Welcome Claimants Proved, Disproved and Doubtful, citation details below]

      Isaac Ingram's will describes the "late deceased" Miriam Short as "my Sister", which could mean she was born Miriam Ingram, but could also mean he was her husband's brother.
