Where this comes from
Each line of the table above names the record it rests on in its third column, and the grade at the top says how well the whole is evidenced. What is not established is said under its own heading below. How the grades and the labels on the chart are decided, and every source this archive holds.
What is not established
- Her maiden name, her birth, her marriage and her death are all unknown.
- Which of the Newington children were hers is the same question as whether the household is the right one.
