    Notes 
    • Witness was Adam Hall of Peterborough.

      Hon Andrew Jeffrey's sister Catherine's husband was Adam Hall and they lived in Peterborough at the time. These facts suggest that Mary Elizabeth was a niece of Adam Hall and Catherine Jeffrey, hence substantiating that Jean Jeffrey Grigg (Mary's Mother) was a sibling of Hon Andrew Jeffrey.
