|caption=From ''Of Plimouth Plantation'' by William Bradford.}}Mary Norris' date and place of birth and parents are currently unknown. Mary (Norris) Allerton is thought to have been about age thirty when she arrived in Plymouth Colony aboard the ''Mayflower'' with her husband and three children.[Bradford, William. ''History of Plymouth Plantation'' (Massachusetts Historical Society, 1856) pp [https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=tYecOAN1cwwC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_atb_hover&pg=GBS.PA448 448], 451][Wakefield, Robert S. and Margaret Harris Stover. ''Mayflower Families Through Five Generations''. (Mayflower Families, 1988). Vol. 17: Isaac Allerton, pages 1-3.]
[ Her 1611 Leiden marriage record indicates she was from Newbury,][ which is presumably Newbury, county Berkshire, England; however, searches of this area for her baptism record and other Norris family records have not yet turned up anything conclusive.][Johnson, Caleb. ''Profile of Mary (Norris) Allerton'' at [http://mayflowerhistory.com/allerton-marynorris MayflowerHistory.com].]
Mary married [[Allerton-3|Isaac Allerton]] of London in Leiden on 4 November 1611,[ banns having been published on 8, 15 and 22 October 1611.]["The Mayflower Marriage Records at Leyden and Amsterdam," published in the ''Mayflower Descendant'' (Boston, MA: Massachusetts Society of Mayflower Descendants, 1899- ). Online database with subs. at [https://www.americanancestors.org/DB407/i/12206/129/0 AmericanAncestors.org], Vol. 7, 1905, pages 129-130.] They apparently had a double marriage, with Isaac's sister, [[Allerton-21|Sarah (Allerton) Vincent]] marrying [[Priest-39|Degory Priest]] on that same day, before the same officials.[Wakefield, Robert S. and Margaret Harris Stover. ''Mayflower Families through Five Generations'', Vol. 8, General Society of Mayflower Descendants, Plymouth, MA., 2nd Ed., 2008: Degory Priest. Online (page 1 only) at [https://www.americanancestors.org/DB2728/rd/48509/1/1415585640 AmericanAncestors.org].] Their banns had been published on the same days as well.
The translation of the Dutch record in the image below is as follows:
Isaac Allerton, unmarried man, from London, in England, accompanied by Edward Southworth, Richard Masterson and Randall Thickins, his acquaintances, with Mary Norris, single woman, from Newbury, in England, accompanied by Anne Fuller and Dille [Priscilla?] Carpenter, her acquaintances. They were married before William Cornelison Tybault and Jacob Paedts, sheriffs, this 4th November, 1611.

Mary died on February 25, 1620/1,[Anderson, Robert Charles. ''The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England, 1620-1633'', (Boston: New England Historical and Genealogical Society, 1996-2011).

(Boston : N.E., Printed by Kneeland & Green for S.

Her husband and three children all survived. Isaac remarried twice more after Mary's death and had two more children, Sarah and Isaac.

=== DNA ===mtDNA Results '''W5a2'''[[https://mayflowerdna.org/wiki/index.php/Mary_Norris_(mtDNA) MayflowerDNA.org wiki mtDNA profile for 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/20221005000859/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 05 Oct 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.
