  • Notes: 

  • Some sources give Jane Godfrey's name as Elizabeth Jane Godfrey. This is because probate records give the name of George Bunker's widow as Jane. However the marriage record for George Bunker gives his bride's name as Elizabeth Godfrey. Also his eldest daughter is named Elizabeth and his son William's baptism gives his mother's name as Elizabeth. Perhaps George Bunker married both an Elizabeth Godfrey and a Jane Godfrey.
