"Clyde, I agree that her name was (4789) Newton when she stepped off the ship, and I agree that she married (4789[2]) John Adams, and I also agree that she later married (4788) Kenelm Winslow. I disagree that her name was Worden at any time and there is absolutely no proof that I have ever seen to say that she was. Could the following information be what's causing the confusion about the Worden surname?

"12. JOHN4 ADAMS (JOHN3, HENRY2, JOHN1)18 was born 1577 in Barton, St. David, Somerset, England18, and died Bef. 1609 in Barton St. David, Somerset, England18. He married ELLEN WARDEN18 1598 in England18, daughter of PETER WORDEN and MARY. ELLEN WARDEN: Burial: December 07, 1681, Marshfield, Plymouth Co., Massachusetts

"Children of JOHN ADAMS and ELLEN WARDEN are:
i. KATHERINE5 ADAMS, b. Abt. 1600.
ii. JOHN ADAMS, b. Abt. 1602; d. 1629.
iii. KATHERINE ADAMS, b. 1605.
iv. MARY ADAMS, b. Abt. 1606.
v. RICHARD ADAMS, b. 1607.
vi. KATHERINE ADAMS, b. Abt. 1608.
vii. MARY ADAMS, b. 1609.

"This is obviously not the John Adams of the ship Fortune, but another John Adams who died in England and married Ellen Worden/Warden. This Ellen was married in the year that Ellen Newton was born. I also cannot explain why this Ellen would have come to this country without her children and why the year of her death is the same as Ellen Winslows. I'm not being a smartass, but there are just too many unanswered questions and very little proof for any of this supposition that Ellen was married three times.

"...in English Ancestry and Homes of the Pilgrim Fathers by Charles E. Banks, [(4789) Ellen] was called Mrs. Ellen Newton, widow, when at age 25, in the year 1623, she emigrated from England to America on the ship Anne.

"(4788) Kenelm was surveyor for the town of Plymouth (1640). He was fined 10 shillings for “neglecting the highways”. He removed to Marshfield in 1641 where he had a grant of land which was considered the “Eden of the region”. He was one of the 26 original proprietors of Assonet, Mass., purchased from the Indians on April 2, 1659. He was a joiner by trade and a “planter”. Was deputy to the General Court (1642-44 and 1649-53). He had “considerable litigation” and was apparently of a “quarrelsome disposition” having spent about four weeks in prison for calling the church leaders of Marshfield “liars”. Kenelm died at Salem, Mass. September 13, 1672 “whither he had gone on business”".

"Clarene, I am posting this on the board rather than privately to allow further discussion. Sears is definitely out. It became an early option because of several Sears family members being buried in the Werden/Worden cemetery in East Dennis, MA (Cape Cod). Also many times it has been said that Winslow is not a possibility as (4791) Mary is certainly not the daughter of (9576) Edward Winslow of Mayflower fame. However, recently, an English researcher also by the name of Peter Worden has brought up the point that no proof can be found of a marriage in England and since Kenelm Winslow mentions marrying his cousin, Mary must either be a Winslow or otherwise related to the Winslow family. I am still attempting to discover the entire Winslow family of that time period.
