  • Notes 
    • There is strong speculation that Esther & Mary may have been twins, since the first three children seem to have been born so close together. "Soule descendants have shown a strong genetic trait of twinning." (see "Mayflower Families Through Five Generations" Vol. 3 , George Soule, p. 14)

      Jeremiah & Mary had two sets of twins.

      Mary Gifford, wife of Jeremiah, is mentioned by name in her father's will of 1723.

      Mary died after her son Gideon's will of 14 Apr 1760.
