This is a line that we are researching for a book in progress on Hubbell ancestors, and I was glad to see this discussion turn up. >> One source: Evelyn Sanford Beran sent notes from the book "The Ancestryof Lorenzo Ackley and Hist Wife, Arabella Bosworth," by N. Grier Parke II, edited by D. L. Jacobus: Woodstock VT 1960, pp. 63-65. The notes specific to Mary Odell: BENJAMIN6 TURNEY (Thomas5, Barnard4, John3, Richard2, James1) was born in co. Buckingham, England, probably at Surcott, slightly before 1600. He died at Fairfield CT 1648. Married at Salford co. Bedford (adjacent to Buckingham) England 12 July 1630 Mary Odell, dau. John and Joan (Bingley) Odell. MARY ODELL. Mary emigrated to New England with her husband Benjamin Turney. She may have been a first cousin of William Odell of Concord MA and Fairfield CT, as she had no brother of the name, but had three Odell uncles: Richard, Thomas, and William, all known to have had issue, but not traced. Mary married (2) Joseph Middlebrook. (Jacobus Additions & Corrections to Families of Old Fairfield p. 24-5). Leslie Carr also lists these parents for Mary; she has Odells back to 1436, but I don't have her source. She's on this listserve; email: thistle@ctel.net. Keep me posted on the book's progress! I connect to Hubbells, too. [Jerusha Hubbell, 1714, d. of John Hubbell jr. 1691 > Richard Jr > Richard.] Hope this helps ~ Jeanne
