- Mary's father Robert is listed in The Great Migration. Vol 3, G-H Robert Charles Anderson's (under sources attached below). Starting on page 101, identifies the migration of Robert Goodall, aged 30, Kathern, his wife, age 28, Mary Goodale, age 4, Abraham Goodale, age 2, and Isaacke Goodale, age half a year, on board the Elizabeth in 1634. His first residence in Massachusetts was in Salem, although over his lifetime he managed to amass a large collection of land. In a 1662 deed he was described as "sometime of Salem." He and his wife Katherine had eight known children, including the 3 born in England. Her father was likely from Dennington, although see page 107 of the above-referenced book for a better discussion.
The marriage record between John Pease and Mary Goodell did not survive. See pages 104 and 105 of the above reference. Anderson quotes a deed of 7 November 1682 where "John Pease Senior, aged about 53 years, saith...the land that my father-in-law Goodell..." They likely married about 1653 as their oldest known child was born in 1654, and probably where the bride's family was living at the time, which was Salem, as was customary in those days.
John and Mary have several children listed in Salem vital records:
Pease, John, s. John and Mary, 20: 3m: 1654. CTR
Pease, Robert, s. John and Mary, 14: 3m: 1656. CTR
Pease, Margaret, d. John and Mary, Oct. 8, 1658. CTR
Pease, Abraham, s. John and Mary, 5: 4m: 166-. CTR [1662. TC]
Peas, Mary, d. John, bp. 5: 3m: 1667.
Pease, Jonathan, s. John and Mary, Jan. 2, 1668. CTR
There is an attached source below for a Mary born in 1658 the same day as Margaret above was born. It looks like what happened is that in the original record, the name looks like "Marg" so it was identified as Margaret by one set of indexers, and by Mary by another set. Obviously, if there was a Mary born in 1658, they wouldn't have named the daughter baptized in 1667 Mary as well.
From "Three Mary Peases of Salem, Massachusetts..." by Ian Watson, published in The American Genealogist, volume 70, 205 - 208: "Robert's son John ...had a daughter named Mary, born 8 October 1658. Savage, Frederick S. Pease, and A.S. Pease all called her Mary. But the compiler of the published Salem vital records misread her name as "Marg" and extrapolated that to "Marg[aret]"...Most Pease historians since the publication of the Salem vital records have copied this error. But an examination of the original record at the Essex Institute in Salem ... shows conclusively that the entry reads "Mary"...As further confirmation, John's probate shows that he had a daughter Mary living in 1690, but no Margaret...And a Mary Pease was one of four children of John Pease baptized at Salem in 1667 in order by age...Many other pieces of evidence show that John Pease had a daughter Mary but no daughter Margaret."
So in total, I think it is safe to say that John and Mary had five known children:
1. John Pease
2. Robert Pease
3. Mary Pease
4. Abraham Pease
5. Jonathan Pease
Unfortunately, Mary died a few days after her youngest son Jonathan was born. Her death is listed in Salem vital records. See source below. Her husband remarried after her death (Ann Cummings) and had three more known children.
Her father Robert also outlived her by several years. Robert left behind a will dated 12 October 1682, which only mentions by name his daughter Elizabeth and her son from her first marriage, John Smith. It is likely that he had already gifted Mary's portion of his estate at the time of her marriage.
Although all of her husband's children with his second wife have birth records in Salem, it appears that he moved the whole family to Enfield, Connecticut about 1682. All of his children have death records there.
Enfield was originally settled in 1679 by settlers from Salem, Massachusetts. Enfield was incorporated in Massachusetts in 1683 as the Freshwater Plantation. Around 1700 the town changed its name to Enfield after Enfield Town in Middlesex. In 1749, following the settlement of a lawsuit in which it was determined that a surveyor's error placed a section of present-day Hartford County (including Enfield) within the boundaries of Massachusetts, the town seceded and became part of Connecticut. So actually the whole time that her husband and children lived there, it was still part of Massachusetts.
Mary may have been buried in The Burying Point (1637) on Charter Street, the oldest cemetery in Salem, but since there is no headstone, this is just speculation.
Mary had some 36 grandchildren. Mary's son Robert and his wife had 12 of these grandchildren. Undoubtedly, they have a large number of descendants.
Margaret Pease Not A Daughter Of John Pease & Mary Goodale. John Pease & Mary Goodale didn't have a daughter named Margaret Pease. They had a daughter named Mary Pease. See the Memories section on the page for proof under the heading "3. Mary (Margaret) Pease." The person who transcribed the Original paperwork mistook "Mary" as "Marg" (an abbreviation for Margaret) which is why past Historians / Genealogist mistook MARY's name for Margaret. If past Historians would have actually looked at the Original Document (Essex Co. Superior Court Recs., Ser. VI, Book 3) for MARY PEASE it clearly spells MARY not Marg. The original document is now part of the PEABODY ESSEX MUSEUM. Further evidence in John Pease Probate shows his daughter Mary living in 1690. Mary Pease was also 1 of 4 children of John Pease Baptised in 1667 in Salem, MA in order of Birth/Age. John Pease daughter Mary Pease married Hugh Pasco.
