Please contact the project through the comments prior to initiating any changes to the Data Fields and wait for a response before proceeding. Thanks. == Unknown Origins ==While some say she was a Sibley (which appears to come from a 1928, unsourced genealogy), there is no documentation for her maiden name. Nor is there any documented proof of the first name of her Shattuck husband. The Sibley parents she's been linked to (without proof) include: # [[Sibley-117|Richard Sibley]] and [[UNKNOWN-12267|Hannah UNKNOWN]] Also sometimes said to be daughter of Henry Siblie: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/2:1:MCCQ-4HQ Because there is no proof of her ancestry, she is shown here without parents. :'''Update:''' She has apparently been confused with [[Sibley-58|Damaris Sibley]] of Nantucket. They've been marked as rejected matches. Let's keep it that way. == Biography =="Nothing was found by Lemuel Shattuck to show a proved connection between the main family of his ''Memorials'' and the Salem family, nor was he able to state the name of the male progenitor of the Salem family, and it is probably that he never came to America and that his widow Damaris crossed the Atlantic with her children. The name Shattuck has been found in the marriage register of the church at Dorchester, Dorset, and the Pope family probably also came from that county. : NOTE: Her second husband, Thomas Gardiner, was from Sherborne, Dorset. She was widow Shattuck in 1641 when she joined the Salem church.''Torrey’s New England Marriages Prior to 1700.'' (Online database. AmericanAncestors.org. New England Historic Genealogical Society, 2008.) Originally published as: New England Marriages Prior to 1700. Boston, Mass.: New England Historic Genealogical Society, 2015.

Damaris is mentioned in the 1668 will of her 2nd husband (Thomas Gardner), but she predeceased him. Damaris Gardner died at Salem on 28 Nov 1674.: "Damaris, w.
