Notes about Mary Elizabeth BRUNDAGE
The best source for descendents of Mary BRUNDISH (born 10 Dec.1628, Ipswich, ENG) is Rev. Charles W. Baird's "History of Rye 1660-1870 (including Harrison & White Plains till 1788): Chronicle of a Border Town" (1871, Anson D.F.Randolph & Co, NYC), reprinted (1974, Harbor Hill Books, Harrison, NY), pp.434-40; 412-3 & 580-4 (town officer lists). This is also very fine for other early BRONDIG / BRONDIGE / BRUNDAGE family. (I can photo copy & snail mail these pages.) Rev. Baird talked with VIth generation PURDY descendents of Mary in Rye.

m1: Rev. Francis Purdy. Bef. August 5, 1642 in Fairfield, Conn. Colony
m2: John Hoyt, of Rye, New York Oct 14, 1658. (Hoit/ Haight). John was the son of Simon Hoit and Deborah Stowers from Upway, Dorset, England, the ancestor of the several Hoit familes in Nova Scotia.
Children of Mary Brundage & John Hoyt: John Hoyt and Mary Brundage had the following children: :
5 i. Rachel6 Hoyt(1814) was born in Fairfield, Fairfield Co, CT. She married John Norton in Fairfield, Fairfield Co, CT, bef 1684.
ii. Simon Hoyt(1815) was born in Probably Eastchester, Westchester Co, NY. Simon Hoyt- probably died without issue
iii. Mary Hoyt(1816) was born in Fairfield, Fairfield Co, CT abt 1645. Mary died in Rye, Westchester Co, NY. She married Hachaliah Brown in Probably Fairfield, Fairfield Co, CT, bef 1684.
iv. Samuel Hoyt(1817) was born bef 1663.
v. John Hoyt(1818) was born in Eastchester, Westchester Co, NY abt 1665. John died between 1723 and 1726 in Rye, Westchester Co, NY. He married Elizabeth Purdy in Rye, Westchester Co, NY, abt 1684. . John Hoyt, b. abt 1664 d. 1723-26, Rye. m. Elizabeth Sherwood (7 children)
Mary Elizabeth BRUNDAGE was born on 10 Dec 1628 in near Ipswich, Suffolk, England. (1828) She was baptized on 10 Dec 1628 in St. Mary at Elm Parish, Ipswich, England.(1829) She the witness to the will of William Froston 6 Jan 1645 in Fairfield, Connecticut.(1830) She resided in 1665 in Eastchester.(1831) She resided in 1676 in Rye,Westchester County, New York.(1832) She died on 15 Sep 1684 in Rye, Westchester County, New York. (1833) Anothersource tells us that she was still alive on November 7, 1684 when the will of her second husband, John Hoyt wasprobated. She has Ancestral File number 7COV-W7. Parents: John BRUNDAGE Sr and Rachel HUBBARD.She was married to Francis PURDY Sr before 5 Aug 1642 in Connecticut. (1834) She was named as "Mary Purdie, wifeof Francis Purdy" when her father's estate was distributed on August 5, 1642. In his will she was left 8 pounds sterling.Children were: John PURDY , Elizabeth PURDY, Francis PURDY Jr, Judge Joseph PURDY Sr, Daniel (or Samuel)PURDY, Mary PURDY.
Francis Purdy of Fairfield CT died in Oct 1658. His birthdate and birthplace are unknown. There are many conflicting stories about him but nobody has been able to produce any evidence. His wife Mary was about 12 years old when they married and it appears that the marriage was one of convenience as her father John Brundish had died suddenly in 1639. The widow married a man who didn't much like the children (or perhaps any children). In Puritan society of the day (Brundish is said to have been a follower of Rev Hooker, and Mary (Brundish) Purdy appears in records of Fairfield's witch trial so we know that they were devout) and under CT town laws, Francis could not have just turned up and married a 12 year old girl. He must have been known to the Brundish family for at least a year when they lived at Wethersfield, and the lot they settled in Fairfield had been bought by John Brundish. This leads me to believe that Francis was living with the Brundish family and had only recently come of age in 1641, making his likely birthdate around 1615 to 1620. He then would have been a teenager arriving with the Brundish family in the early-mid 1630's. Since the Brundish family was from Suffolk, his birth in Yorkshire is unlikely.
