I can find no evidence that Rose was a daughter of Fear Brewster and Isaac Allerton, so I will be removing her and changing her LNAB to Unknown. |

==Biography==Fear Allerton née Brewster (c. 1606 - before December 12, 1634) was the third daughter of Mayflower Pilgrim William Brewster and his wife Mary, born in Scrooby, Nottinghamshire, England. She was named Fear because at the time of her birth, the Puritans were holding secret meetings and were under constant threat of arrest. Her early years, and indeed her whole life, were full of unrest.
In 1608, she moved with her family and other pilgrims, to Amsterdam (and later Leiden), Holland. Fear was only 14 when her parents, William Brewster and his wife Mary and two younger brothers, Love and Wrestling, left for America on the ''Mayflower''. She was left in the care of her older siblings, Jonathan (born in 1593) and Patience (born in 1600). Jonathan joined the pilgrims in 1621 on board the Fortune. Fear arrived in New England with Patience on board the ''Anne'' in July 1623.
Fear married [[Allerton-3|Isaac Allerton]], another Mayflower pilgrim, before the first division of cattle on 22 May 1627, when she is listed with Issac as Fear Allerton.[ He was 20 years her senior. They had a son, Isaac Allerton Jr., born about 1627. There is speculation that they had a daughter, Sarah Allerton, who was baptised on August 13, 1633 and probably died in infancy.]
Fear died young, but the exact date is unknown. The deaths of Fear and her sister, Patience (Brewster) Prence, were mentioned in a letter from Governor John Winthrop dated 12 Dec 1634 and it is assumed that the sisters died shortly before that date.[Bowman, George Ernest. "The Deaths of Patience (Brewster) Prence and Fear (Brewster) Allerton," published in the ''Mayflower Descendant'' (Boston, MA: Massachusetts Society of Mayflower Descendants, 1899- ). Online database: [https://www.americanancestors.org/DB407/i/12865/97/0 AmericanAncestors.org], Vol 30, 1932, pages 97-98.] In 1634, smallpox and influenza ravaged both the Indians and the English in the New England area.
