Wythe married at Nacton, Suffolk, 8 April 1616 Susan Pakeman, bp. Nacton 8 March 1597, daughter of Christopher Pakeman.
They had ten known children:
1. MARGARET WYTHE, bp. Nacton 19 January 1616/7; bur. Woolverston, Suffolk, 9 June 1626.
2. MARY WYTHE, b. about 1618 (d. Hampton 29 May 1706 aged eighty-eight years); probably m. by about 1637 ABRAHAM PERKINS {1639, Hampton} (two eldest known children, not described as twins, bp. Hampton 15 December 1639; see COMMENTS below).
3. SUSANNA WYTHE, b. say 1620; m. by an unknown date John Bursley of Hampton and Exeter (see COMMENTS below).
4. ABIGAIL WYTHE, bp. Woolverstone 30 May 1622; m. (1) by 1639 THOMAS JONES {1637, Newbury} (only child bp. Hampton 29 October 1639); m. (2) after 1666 Thomas Chadwell.
5. EMME WYTHE, bp. Woolverstone 30 September 1624; bur. there 28 September 1625.
6. BENJAMIN WYTHE, bp. Woolverstone 15 December 1626; on 26 March 1639, the court ordered that "Benjamin Wise eldest son to the said Humfry Wise deceased shall be with Abraham Perkins of Hampton as an apprentice, and him to serve for the space of seven years from the 20th day of September last past;" on 27 May 1649, "Samewell Grenfeld, late of Exseter, sold to Edward Colcord of Hamton, all his upland, marsh, meadow and commonage granted to him or due to him from the town of Hamton, except that part which said Grenfeld had sold to Thomas Joones or Benjeman Wiss;" no further record.
7. EMME WYTHE, b. say 1628; on 26 December 1649, "William Howard and Mary Perkins deposed that a bill was due to Em Wise or Wyth, daughter of the wife of Samuell Greenfeild; that Greenfeild altered it, putting in his name instead of that of his daughter-in-law, and assigned it to Joseph Armitage. Continued to the next county court at Boston on charge of forgery, the court being informed that he was in the prison at Boston;" possibly m. Richard Carle of Dover and Kittery (see COMMENTS below).
8. SARAH WYTHE, b. say 1630; m. Newbury 11 May 1650 David Wheeler, son of John Wheeler.
9. ANN WYTHE, bp. Woolverstone 18 October 1632; on 25 March 1648, "Ann Wise" witnessed a document made by "John Busly" of Exeter; m. (1) by about 1654 William Taylor ("She deposed in 1714 about her first husband 60 years before"); m. (2) Exeter 2 April 1677 George Pearson .
10. JOSEPH WYTHE, bp. Woolverstone 4 September 1634 ; perhaps the "Jo. –yfe" who witnessed for Samuel Greenfield on 24 April 1649; on 26 March 1650, "Joseph With being committed to Georg[e] Gittens for his disposal the court orders that if Edward Gillman doth not within one month make it appear that he hath a right to him, then the said Georg[e] Gittens to bind him forth to some trade in this town;" no further record.
He died by 4 March 1638/9 & she married (2) by 1639 STEPHEN GREENFIELD {1637, Salem}.
COMMENTS: The evidence for the marriages of some of the daughters of Humphrey Wythe is not as strong as we might like. The probate proceedings for Humphrey Wythe stated on 26 March 1639 that "he left a wife & five children, Benjamin, Joseph, Em[me], Sarah and Ann, besides some that were married and had received their portions," implying that we are looking for at least two children, in addition to the five named here, who had already married by 1639. We note first that the two sons named above left only a handful of records in New England, and evidently died young, unmarried and without issue. Furthermore, there is no evidence for any older sons of Humphrey Wythe, so we are searching for two or more daughters who had married by 1639.
Our strongest records for tying this family together come from one of these older daughters, Abigail, who first married Thomas Jones and then Thomas Chadwell. That Humphrey Wythe had such a daughter was demonstrated in 1993 by the publication of the record of her baptism at Woolverstone, Suffolk, on 30 May 1622.
On 14 March 1666/7, upon the "complaint of [worn] Chadwell his wife," "the examination of John Simple aged [blank]" was conducted. On the same day, "Sarah Bursly aged about 13 years sayeth that on Wednesday night last about eight a clock John Simple without speaking to her she having a candle in her hand he took her by the arms & threw her upon the ground upon her back & put up all her clothes & lay upon her unbuttoning his britches, and by violence thrust his member into her body … & she was & now remains sore & that he made the blood to come from her which is apparent & evident to her aunt, she likewise sayeth he had several times told her he would lie with her but never did until the last night & then he begged of her that she would not tell her aunt." "Tho[mas] Chadwell binds himself in the bond of twenty pounds for Sarah Bursly's appearance at the General Court or else at the next Court of Assistants."
