• Notes

  She had multiple children and husbands. She had to be young enough to have children by Sudler also. Her last husband was a Manders. He could be the Thomas Manders who died on Kent Island bef 1707. She is listed in immigration records ins Cicely Evans and in 1680 as Cicely Evans Bright. The fact that she was listed under her maiden name in 1673 might not indicate that she was not married at the time due to reasons explained at https://www.uscis.gov/history-and-genealogy/genealogy/genealogy-notebook/immigrant-name-changes. The more likely possibility is that she married a Thomas Bright after she arrived in 1673.
