Walter Weston Folger ,  He married 16.Marie Wood 5 Dec 1593.

16. Marie Wood was christened 9 Sep 1581 in Dorking, Surrey, England, the
daughter of 24.Henry Wood and 25.Marthey Bull.
The ancestry of Mary is taken from Ancestors and Descendants of Jehu Cox
by Wayne D. Stout.  Stout provided it without any references.
Mary Wood Hussey emigrated to the New England Colony 1630 according to
one historical record, and in 1632 according to others.
Having been persecuted in England for their religious views in opposition
the the Church of England, they, along with hundreds of other
non-conformists or Puritans, had resided in Holland for a period before
emigrating to America.

She was an 'Original Grantee' of Hampton, N.H. and a 'Proprietor" there
1638-1640.  Her home was near but not with son, Christopher.  Even though
there was no official "Friends" or Quaker Meetings at that time, her
family was of the faith that later became known as 'Friends'.  She was a
forceful individual.
