Hi Peter, I'm not sure if the above mention of the surname of John Butler's wife was a typo or what you have in your database but I thought I'd mention that her actual surname was "LYNDE" d/o Thomas LYNDE, the Emigrant, and his wife Mary (surname unknown). This information from Torrey's New England Marriages prior to 1700, Banks Colonial Families of Martha's Vineyard, and the Wyman's Genealogies and Estates of Charlestown, Mass. I descend through Nicholas and Mary also.
