Ian,
Unfortunately there is not much out there. The IGI, AF & PRF seems to hint
her father was John Carpenter but no proof given. One submitter has her born
in Cranbrook, Kent, England, daughter of John Carpenter.

Subject: [CARPENTER] CARPENTER, Mary: b abt 1577 Kent, England m Edward

I have a brick wall named Mary CARPENTER, I know very little about her so
don't expect miracles, however any help or ideas would be greatly
appreciated.
Mary CARPENTER was born abt. 1577 in East Mailing, Kent, England. She
married Edward KINGE (b. 24 Nov 1583). They had at least one child, John.
Mary and Edward are my 10th great Grandparents.
