"Rose Bents: Christening, 25 Mar 1607 Saint Dunstan, Stepney; Father: Allexander Bents"[3]
- Mother of Bence Parker. Rose Bence was widowed and remarried Captain William Maynard of Lymehouse (See Bence Parker's will, written in 1659)

"Bence Parker: Christening: 02 Dec 1629 Saint Dunstan, Stepney Father; William Parker; Mother: Rose"[4]
- Bence Parker was son to William Parker and Rose Bence, the daughter of Alexander Bence. Bence Parker was therefore possibly the cousin of Alexander Bence the elder, who was one of the owners of the Three Brothers, of which Bence Parker was commander at the time of his death on the Coromandel Coast in 1659.
