Her mother was not Susanna. (Susanna was John Mills' second wife, married 15 Jan 1628/9.) Her mother was John's first wife, Catheryn (Scotson) Mills, married at All Saints Sudbury, Co.Suffolk on 5 Feb 1615/6.

Christine LaHue adds:
If you check the records for Third Church of Boston (Old South), I believe you'll find that Susannah was married to the first William Dawes to have immigrated and stayed in New England. Susannah (aka "Goody Dawes") joined Old South in 1674.
