(Gravesend, L. I. Court Records) It is likely that Walter Wall had become a widower, and had bound out his daughter, Mary, a mere child, for her better bringing up, to Nathaniel Britton. (WALL of Monmouth County, NJ) His parents were Richard Brittaine and Christian Reymers of Somersetshire, England. [2] Nathaniel’s parents: Nathaniel Brittaine 1640-1684. When Nathaniel Brittaine was born in 1640 in Birmingham, Warwickshire, England, their father, Richard, was 23, and their mother, Katherine, was 60 (this age cannot be true). He died in February 1684 in Staten Island, New York, at the age of 44, and was buried in Bermondsey, Surrey, England (death and burial locations do not make sense).
