Mary Lovet

Mary Lovet was born in the year 1617 in Plymouth, Devanshire, England. There is no evidence of her ancestory but it is believed that she lived in Salem. There is evidence there was a Lovet family that lived in Salem in 1630.

It is possible that Lovet is not her last name and that name really referred to her married name to John Leavitt.

In 1635 or 36 John Deacon Leavitt married Mary Lovet. Over the next 9 years John and Mary had five children:
