Thanks to everyone who took the time to look for Prudence Perkins. My father finally found out who she was through other means. I thought I'd share part of his letter with you. " ... The Prudence Perkins I seek information on was the wife of the *father* of William Brewster, the Pilgrims minister. [The father] was also named William Brewster as was his father and son. He was born in 1535 and died in 1590. He had two wives. One was Prudence Perkins and the other was Mary (last name unknown). These Brewsters lived in Nottinghamshire and later in Scrooby in Old England, at which place this William Brewster was a locally important figure (Bailiff etc) on which I have found details. Thanks to all for all the other info." Researching: Perkins, Whitney, Carpenter, Hurd, Noble, Wilson, Cummings, Soule, Churchill, Stone, Dodge, Sampson,
