Surname Saturday -- LNU (Mary, who married John Gorton, England to colonial Massachusetts)

It's Surname Saturday, and I'm "counting down" my Ancestral Name List each week.

I am working in the 9th great-grandmothers by Ahnentafel number, and I am up to Ancestor #2383 who is Mary LNU (1612-after 1676). [Note: the more recent ancestral families have been covered in earlier posts.]

My ancestral line back through one generation in this LNU family line is:

18.  Edward Hildreth (1831-1899)

2382.  John Gorton, born about 1610 in England; died before 19 October 1676 in Roxbury, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States.  He married about 1636 in probably Roxbury, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States.
2383.  Mary LNU, born about 1612 in England; died after 1676 in probably Roxbury, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States.

Children of John Gorton and Mary LNU are:

Information about the Gorton family was obtained from:

*  Henry Whittemore, Genealogical Guide to the Early Settlers of America, with a Brief History of Those of the First Generation (Baltimore, Md. : Genealogical Publishing Company, 1967), page 217, John Gorton sketch.

I have done no original research on this Gorton line.
