Mary Jackson was baptised at St Botolph's, the parish church of Boston in Lincolnshire, on 29 November 1618. Her father was Edmund Jackson of that town. Her brother Elisha was baptised there in 1623, and a sister Susan was buried there in 1630.

She came to the other Boston, in New England, and married Nathaniel Woodward, a carpenter. On 23 January 1640/1 she was admitted to the Boston church as "the wife of our brother Nathaniell Woodward".

Her children were baptised at Boston: Elisha on 21 April 1644 and Nathaniel on 12 April 1646. An older child had been born by 1642, and Israel and John came later, John about 1650. In 1648 the family moved to Taunton, in the Plymouth Colony.

She is thought to have died by 1655. By 1664 her husband had married again.

Her brother Samuel Jackson's will names three people in the Storre family as his grandfather, grandmother and uncle. They were probably her mother's parents and brother.
