A Possible Breakthrough on Samuel Very's Mother

I was able to add some details to my Very family while in Salt Lake. One of the items was the will of Bridget Very Giles, mother of Samuel Very.

Bridget left Kent, England with her children after the death of husband, Thomas Very, and settled in Salem, Mass. Bay. She married Edward Giles in 1636. Bridget's maiden name was not given.

While searching for additional information on the Twiss and Very families, several links to a Bridget Scudder came up. According to "Our Sussex Roots" and a handful of other pages, Bridget was the daughter of  Henry Scudder and Elizabeth Hale.

Bridget was born about 1591 in Kent, England. She married Thomas Very about 1616. Thomas died in 1631. The widow and her three children settled in Salem, where Bridget married Edward Giles. She was named in the will of Rev. Henry Scudder as a cousin living in New England.

Although more verification is in order, it would appear that Samuel Very's mother was Bridget Scudder.
