  • Notes 
    • It is not certain that this is the Mary who married Elisha Cory, who was the son of Isaac and Abigail (Priest) Cory. One source thinks that Mary married Amasa Fuller.

      **********
      The following is from the Spencer reference:

      «i»Mary Munroe married Elisha Cory of Groton in Lexington on 18 Apr 1780. She is listed as Mary Munroe of Lexington in the marriage record, so I don't think she was living with her father Philip since he had moved to the Rutland / Shrewsbury area long before 1780...

      Mary probably died in Groton sometime between 1800 and 1810, because there is a record of the marriage of Elisha Corey to Mrs. Abigail Green of Pepperell on 31 May 1810.
