¦Mary Fitton (or Fytton) (Baptised 24 June 1578 – 1647) was the daughter of Sir Edward Fitton of Gawsworth, Cheshire and Alice Halcroft, and is considered by some to be the "Dark Lady" of Shakespeare's sonnets. Her elder sister, Anne, married John Newdigate in 1587, at the age of fourteen. She also had two brothers, about whom not much is known.
¦Mary Fitton,

born where and when please?

I think a little more information as to how you have got back to her would be helpful if you think she might be an ancestor.


Lots of information on her if you google.

I'm looking for any info on Fittons especially Mary
Fitton, the Dark Lady of Shakespeares Sonnets.
I don't have much info for that side of my tree soany help would be appreciated.
Thanks Paula :-)
