Heraldry Submission:
- Mary is cited from Withycombe, E.G. Oxford Dictionary of Christian Names, s.n. Mary (p. 211-212) dated to 1440.
- Webb is cited from Reaney, P.H. and R. M. Wilson A Dictionary of English Surnames, s.n. Webb (p. 480). The submitter indicates that she wants this header spelling, but no dates for the spelling are provided.
- Metron Ariston notes there is an early 20th C English novelist named Mary Webb:
Though associated primarily with Shropshire, she received fairly wide recognition in the early twentieth century and even has a society devoted to her works ({`a} la the Austenites). She has articles in the Encyclopedia Britannica (see secure.britannica.com/eb/article?eu=78391) and other similar encyclopedic works. Laurel notes that because this novelist does not deal with our area or time of study, and because she is not widely recognized, she is not significant enough to protect.
