  • Notes 
    • Little is known about Alice, the wife of William Mullins. She is named o nly once: in the 1621 will of her husband William Mullins. It is not kn own if she is the mother of all his children, some of his children, or n one of them. There is no evidence she had the Atwood or Poretiers surna mes claimed by some 19th and early 20th century authors.

      Recent research into her origins, undertaken by Caleb Johnson and Simon N eal, has focused on the Browne, Dendy, Gardinar, Hammon, and Wood famil ies of Dorking and Holy Trinity, Guildford. In 2012 (Mayflower Quarterl y, 78:44-57), Caleb Johnson published a speculative hypothesis that Wil liam Mullins may have married twice, first Elizabeth Wood, and second A lice, perhaps widow of either William or Thomas Browne (possibly making A lice the mother or aunt of Mayflower passenger Peter Browne). While the s peculative hypothesis matches all the known facts, it is by no means pr oven. No additional evidence, supporting or disproving that hypothesis, h as been published since that time.
