Mary Smith, nee Dallison

The elder of the two daughters of William and Elizabeth Dallison, the other being Margaret Dallison. Mary married a Henry Smith, who appears at some time following his marriage to have been suspected of and possibly prosecuted for treason. This needs, however, to be verified. The Kentish pedigree of Dalison shows Mar remarrying to a George Tushingham.

Elizabeth showed affection towards her daughter Mary in her letters to Sir George Oxenden in the 1660s, and Mary heself wrote warmly to Sir George, who was her uncle. However, it is suggested by several letter writers that after the death of her mother Mary chose to side with her brother in his law suit against the executors of his mother's will, despite Mary herself receiving a substantial annuity from her mother in that will.
