of Col. George Reade.

By Charles Browning, Ardmore, Penn.

1582.  August 21, Bapt. "Fraunciscus Wyndeba'cke".

of Virginia).

1584.  August 12.  Bapt. "Mrs. Margareta Windebanke".
   (She was subsequently called "Mildred".  Her name was either changed, or entered wrong.  She married,
when only sixteen years old, Robert Reade, as his third wife, it is said, and surely his second, as,
