      [-------- Joan Lukes

                  b. Abt 1578

 

 

Mary Wetherell and Thomas Oldham were married 20 Nov 1656, Scituate. 

 

Mary Fisher and William Wetherell were married 26 Mar 1627 in St. Mildred’s, Canterbury, Kent, Eng.

 

Joan Lukes married Thomas Fisher 4 Oct 1597 at Canterbury, Eng.  One source has her last name as Lake.  Note that this Thomas Fisher is not the Thomas Fisher listed in the Great Migration Directory, so Mary's father did not come to New England between 1620-1640.

 

The book The Clapp Memorial, about the Clapp family in America, says in a note at page 107 that there is a tradition that Rev. Wetherell's mother was a daughter of John Rogers, "the Smithfield martyr."  Rogers is an interesting part of the story of religious discrimination by the English government against reformers.  He was burned at the stake on Feb. 4, 1555 at Smithfield, Eng..  If this tradition is true, John Rogers would be the 11th Great-grandfather of the Bissell 3G generation.
