    • Notes: 

    • Jane Gates's maiden name is also seen as Yates.

      Jane's was believed to be a widow when she married William Collier. If true, her maiden name is probably not Clark. In Robert Charles Anderson's "The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England 1620-1633, Volume 1," there is a discussion on the possible first marriage of Jane to a Clark on pages 448 and 449. It also discusses Jane being the grandmother of the Sarah Walker who married Nathaniel Warren, son of the Mayflower passenger.
