Frideswide (--) (Osborn) Mulford parentage estab.

Has Frideswide's (Friedeswiede) parentage been established?

I recently found mention of a Richard Collecott of Boston, who referred to "My sister Moleford's house" in his will (1686) and this seems to refer to Friedeswiede Mulford (widow of William Osborn and wife of Judge John Mulford) who may have been Richard's sister-in-law, by his second wife, Thomasine.

John Insley Coddington believed Friedeswiede (Osborn) Mulford and Thomasine Collecott were both half sisters of Samuel Ward of Hingham or of Ward's unkonwn wife.

Has anyone seen mention of this before or know where more information on Friedeswiede and Thomasine can be found?
