She married Jonathan Knowlton in 1777 at Walpole Maine (Mass. at that time). Mary had four sisters who all married at Bristol,and then the five girls, their husbands and parents (Ebenezer Blunt and Lydia Francis) all pushed on to Farmington Falls, Maine in 1781.

Information from letter sent to me December 3, 1984 from Mrs Raymond Lent a descendant of Mary Blunt Oakes Knowlton and Jonathan Knowlton.
