  • Notes 
    • A probable "gateway ancestor" of Teresa and GFS, and also of Fritz Leiber and Theodore Sturgeon, depending on whether the mother of her great-great grandmother Joan Roberts (~1484-1548) was in fact Isabel Culpepper (d. 1491), as seems circumstantially likely.

      "After the 1639 death of her second husband the Rev. Robert Chamberlaine, Elizabeth (Scudder) (Chamberlaine) Stoughton 'came to New England with her children Elizabeth Scudder and Samuel and Joanna Chamberlaine, following her brothers Thomas and Israel Stoughton, and her son John Scudder, all of whom were here by 1635'. She was certainly in New England by 6 October 1644, when, as 'Mestres Chamberlin,' she joined the Rev. John Lothrop's church at Barnstable. She apparently moved to the Bay Colony shortly thereafter, for on 14 May 1645, the Massachusetts Bay General Court, calling her 'Mrs Chamberlin, widowe, sister to Mr Iraell Stoughton,' directed, '[u]pon weighty reasons moveing,' that she be allowed either a cow or £5." [Jane Fletcher Fiske, "A New England Immigrant Kinship Network," citation details below.]

      Elizabeth Stoughton (~1597-1647) = John Scudder (b. ~1590)
      Elizabeth Scudder (1625-1700) = Samuel Lathrop (1621-1700)
      Samuel Lathrop = Hannah Aldgate
      Hannah Lathrop = Jabez Perkins
      Hannah Perkins = Joshua Huntington
      Lydia Huntington = Ephraim Bill
      Lydia Bill = Joseph Howland
      Susan Howland = John Aspinwall
      Mary Rebecca Aspinwall = Isaac Roosevelt
      James Roosevelt = Sara Delano
      Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945)
