William Bradford's 1650/1 list of increasings noted that "... Mary is maried here, & hath 4. children."
She married Thomas Cushman abt 1636 in Plymouth. Thomas was brought to Plymouth by his father Robert Cushman in 1621 onboard the ship ''Fortune''.[''A Genealogical Profile of Thomas Cushman,'' ([https://web.archive.org/web/20170607112550/http://www.plimoth.org/sites/default/files/media/pdf/cushman_thomas.pdf Thomas Cushman, Plimoth.org] (Link via Wayback Machine at Archive.org.): archive date 07 June 2017).

In 1690 it was noted: "Two persons liveing that came over in the first shipe 1620, this present yeare, 1690. Resolved White and Mary Chusman [sic], the daughter of Mr. Allerton."

=== DNA ===mtDNA Results '''W5a2'''[[https://mayflowerdna.org/wiki/index.php?title=Mary_Norris_(mtDNA) MayflowerDNA.org wiki mtDNA profile of Mary Norris]]The [https://www.familytreedna.com/public/mayflowersociety?iframe=yresults Mayflower DNA Project] lists one matrilineal (all female line) descendant of Mary. It is presumed this individual has taken the full mtDNA test, which tests every single base pair of the mitochondrial DNA.[Due to the fact some mtDNA mutations are directly linked to health issues, Full mtDNA results are not revealed on any FTDNA website. Instead, FTDNA only reveals the HVR (Hyper Variable Region) I & HVR II mtDNA results.] FTDNA has assigned this individual to the W5a2 mtDNA haplogroup. Today this rare lineage is present at trace frequencies in the populations of Norway, Scotland, Ireland, and Germany.[[https://web.archive.org/web/20220817140636/https://haplogroup.org/mtdna/rsrs/l123456/l23456/l2346/l346/l34/l3/n/n2/w/w5/w5a/w5a2/ Haplogroup.org] (Link via Wayback Machine at Archive.org, capture date 17 Aug 2022.)] Given the locations this haplogroup is found, it is possible Mary's family may have lived near Scrooby and participated in the early Separatist Church at Scrooby Manor.
