Did he mentioned that she was banished from Massachusetts basically for her Antinomian beliefs? She first settled in Rhode Island. She was eventually killed by Indians in New York.

So, in today's episode, Mark 6, Jesus goes to his hometown of Nazareth. But they are not as impressed with him as everybody else has been.
-- Where did this man get these things?" they asked... "Isn't this the carpenter? Isn't this Mary's son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren't his sisters here with us?" And they took offense at him.
Jesus then send the 12 apostles out in pairs to all the villages in the area to heal and cast out demons.
