Dana, Yes, it was Marjery. I have checked all known ship records (at that time records were "hit or miss"). It is doubtful that emigrants at that time moved from Barbados to New England. Although possible, to my knowledge (after extensive research), no records exist. All we know is that these people were part of "The Great Migration". Some things will never be known. I have come to accept this fact after many years of research.

Is her name really spelled "Marjery" I thought it was "Marjory". Has anyone checked ships leaving England, but arriving in Canada? Some research has indicated settlers moving through the Barbados and then into America. What about that possibility? I guess it is definitive that her last name was Wilson. Thank you!

I was just investigating more on-line and "discovered" a site that has the transcription of the wills of John Knowlton and wife Marjery. From the information, it appears her brother's name is Theopolis Wilson. I don't know where this will lead. The site is: home.att.net/~geneajan/JKnowltonWill.html I will be interested to hear what anyone thinks about that. Although it is probably not news to some of you.
