The ancestry of Marbury's mother, Agnes Lenton, appears on a number of websites, but is incorrect. Champlin tells us that the father of Agnes was John Lenton, but that is all we know. One or more sources claim that Agnes was the daughter of John Lenton and wife Elizabeth Shepherd, but a look at a 1964 article from the New England Historic Genealogical Register reveals that Elizabeth Shepherd married John Lenton in 1585. Therefore, this couple cannot be the grandparents of Francis Marbury who was born in 1555, and therefore we still only know what Champlin published in 1914: that John Lenton was the grandfather of Francis Marbury, but who he married and who his ancestors were remains unknown.

It looks pretty good at first glance, but there are a few minor issues that need fixing before it can pass. ⋘ HueSatLum ? ❢⋙ 17:13, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
Looks good
I think I've addressed all of your comments up to this point. Sarnold17 ( talk) 00:01, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
The following was added to the Anne Hutchinson article, but I removed it, and thought it would be more suitable in this article. I will post it here first, as I'd like to check it out before including it in the article: -- one of Marbury's formal students at Alford was John Smith, later to achieve fame through his work at Jamestown Colony in Virginia [1] --
