Honour Rolfe

Honour Rolfe (1554–19 July 1619) is identified in Barbara’s family branch as a 12th great-grandmother.

Honour Rolfe was born in 1554 and died on 19 July 1619.

Family-tree material identifies her as the wife of John Rolfe. A note states that John Rolfe married “Honore” on 15 September 1579 at White Parish, Wiltshire, England. The same material identifies Honour as the mother of HenryHenrye Rolfe, who is described in the relationship path as having arrived in Newbury, Massachusetts, in 1635.

The available notes also state that Honour’s mother, Agnes Rolfe, married Richard Rolfe. That note cautions that Richard Rolfe may or may not have been directly related to Agnes.
