Family Steven PIPPING, b. Est 1578, bur. 23 Jan 1630/31, All Saints’ Church, Burmarsh, Kent, England (Age ~ 53 years)
Other Partners: Elizabeth CUSHMAN m. 2 Apr 1627Married 25 Aug 1606 All Saints’ Church, Burmarsh, Kent, England - From KFHS CD 29 (Steven's surname given as Poopen), also on the IGI (latter has Steven's surname as Peopen).
No indication of marital status, but it can't be Benett Allen who was married Samuel Gotam re-marrying as a widow as Samuel didn't die until 1623.
If it wasn't that Benett, who was she? Probably not a god-daughter of that Bennett, either, unless she was a god-mother before linked to the Gothams by her marriage to Samuel.
While Samuel and Benett may have named a daughter Benett she could only have been about 13 at most in 1606, a bit young to have married. Samuel's possible 1st cousin John, bapt like Samuel in Chartham and from the date of baptism close to him in age, lived in Burmarsh; this connection may have been how a Benett from that family came to marry in Burmarsh.
Or did John himself call a daughter Benett? This Benett died in 1627/8 i.e. after John, but she is not mentioned in his will, so probably not his daughter.
Nor would she seem to be a sister of John as not named in his father's will. Perhaps a sister of Samuel? Bennett was quite a popular name at the time so Samuel could co-incidentally have had both a wife and a sister with the same name.
Or else probably linked further back than I have been able to discover Goathams in Kent.
