According to Melissa Thompson Alexander's page on Katherine Graves Sprigg:
http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=madagtenet&id=I23019
Katherine Graves is born either circa 1622 at Jamestown, Virginia, or between 1610 and 1625 in Northamptonshire, England (more likely in Virginia).
Katherine married William Roper (born circa 1620) about 1637, and the two have two children: William and Verlinda, over the next couple years.
Katherine married Thomas Sprigg (born 1630 in Kettering, Northamptonshire, England) on 6 June 1650 in Accomac, Northampton, Virginia Colony. The two have 6 children over the next five years, apparently in Accomac.
Katherine Sprigg dies before 1668 at Resurrection Manor in Calvert, Prince George County, Maryland Colony.
