Biography

From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Glass-48

Amy Glass was a daughter of James Glass and his wife Mary Coggan. Amy had 11 siblings, all baptized at Taunton, Somerset, England between 1614 and 1635. James Glass, Amy's father, died by early 1639 and may have been predeceased by his wife, Mary.[1]

Amy appeared in New England records by 1639 and had settled in Plymouth. Her siblings, who appeared in New England records by the same year, were James Glass at Barnstable and Roger Glass at Scituate. These three may have migrated in 1639 at the time of their father's death, or perhaps some or all of them may have migrated earlier with an aunt or an uncle. Another sibling, Henry Glass appeared at a date later then 1639
