--
One tree has her last name as Sanford. I think the Henry Dyer who married Mary Sanford was born about 1640, though.

--
Phelps website has last name as Royce; source cited is LDS Ancestral File.

--
A tree that no longer exists said she was a daughter of Nehemiah Royce 1636 Long Sutton, Somerset England d 1706-11-07 Wallingford CT + 1660-11-20 Hannah Morgan 1642-07-18 Roxbury MA d 1706-12-12.

Many other trees say that Nehemiah's daughter Mary married c1702 Samuel Lewis or Gideon Ives, or that she died as a baby.

--
Nehemiah Royce and Robert Royce are both listed as Freemen in New London on a 1669-09-28 list.

--
Many trees have her as Mary Rice b c1666.

--
Another old tree said she was born 1675-08-12 Wallingford New London CT and died between 1723 and 1726 in Lebanon CT.

--
Another one said her parents were Matthew Rice 1630-02 Hertfordshire Eng d 1713 Sudbury MA and 1654-07-07 Martha Lamson 1633 Ridgewell, Essex Eng. Matthew's will does not list a daughter Mary.
