from L&M Companion--the Batten entry
...[of Batten's four children] Mary married one Leming of Colchester. (A widow Mary Leming of St Mary's Colchester died in 1671; her husband James, who died in 1668, may possibly have been Batten's son-in-law if the date of his death can be reconciled with Pepys's statement that he was dying as early as 1662)....

Note Mary's older sister Martha married William Castle the Shipbuilder.
