Barbara Corlett

The widow Elizabeth Cutter, died in Jan. 1663-4, and her will was probated April 1, 1664. Having lived with her daughter for the last twenty years of her life, Elizabeth left all her estate to her daughter Barbara (Cutter) Corlett, wife of Elijah Corlett, the Latin teacher and grammar schoolmaster in Cambridge.[1/89] She was 87 years old at the time the will was written, February 16, 1662.[4/2:172] Since Elizabeth was living with Barbara since the early 1640's, that would tend to indicate her husband had died prior to that time.

Elizabeth's children Richard and Barbara also indicated a difficult voyage. Richard stated, "and so I came to this place and coming by sea and having a hard voyage ...".[2/179] And Barbara's "sad passages by sea".[2/90]"
