• Name	Susanna JACKSON  [1, 2]
  Birth	Abt 1594	possibly, Scrooby, Nottinghamshire, England   [3]
  Gender	Female
  Emigration	6 Sep 1620	, Plymouth, Devonshire, England   [4]
  	on the Mayflower Role: Principal 2
  Arrival	9 Nov 1620	,, Plymouth Colony   [4]
  	Role: Principal 2
  Biographical Note	Susannah must have been a strong person; she survived the crossing of the Atlantic to give birth to Peregrine while the Mayflower was still at anchor, then survived the first disastrous winter which killed off most of the other women of the colony. Once Edward Winslow became involved with politics, the family saw little of him. Susannah spent much of her married life apart from her spouse. The family moved to Marshfield by 1634.79 On 30 October 1623 Edward Winslow wrote from London to "his much respected Uncle Mr. Robert Jackson" who was clerk of the sewers at Spalding, Lincolnshire. In his letter he wrote that "almost two years since I wrote to my father-in-law declaring the death of his son White & the continued health of his daughter and her two children; also how that by God's providence she was become my wife.... My wife hath had one child by me, but it pleased him that gave it to take it again unto himself; I left her with child at my departure (whom God preserve) but hope to be with her before her delivery." This remains the best clue to her identity.79 "Great Migration" lists her death as "between 1654 and 1675."79 NOTE: Burial note says she was buried in Norfolk. http://www.cairril.com/gen/famgroups/fg02/fg02_204.htm
  Name	Susanna White  [5]
  Name	Susanna Winslow  [6, 7]
  Death	Between 1654 and 1675  [8]
  	We do not know the date of Susanna’s death. Her name appears in her husband Edward’s will, written in 1654. She is not mentioned in her son Josias' will. It is therefore assumed that Susanna White Winslow died between 18 December 1654 (when Edward Winslow's will was written) and 2 July 1675 (the date of Josias Winslow's will).
