Individual Notes
• William Mullins is not descended from any Molyneaux family, nor does he have any proven royal ancestry. There is no evidence that his wife Alice was named Alice Atwood or Alice Poretiers. [MD 44:38-43]2592, p 3

• William Mullins came from Dorking, County Surrey, and he brought his wife Alice, his children Joseph and Priscilla, and his servant Robert Carter, with him. Mullins died 21 February 1620/21 (MD 30:3).
His will [MD 1:230] shows that he also left a son William and a married daughter Sarah (Mullins) Blunden in England, and George E. Bowman, “The states of William(2) Mullins and His Daughter Sarah(3) (Mullins) (Gannett) (Savill) Faxon and of Her Three Husbands” (MD 7:37, 179) shows that William(2) came to Plymouth Colony sometime after his father’s death. From the probate documents it appears that granddaughter Sarah left no descendants, and the only proven Mullins descendants living today are via daughter Priscilla, who married John Alden.20, p 331

• Planter recruited by Thomas Weston, of London merchant adventurers.7144, p 2
