About 1st wife of John Morton

From RootsWeb: It is said John Morton and William Randolph came to Virginia about 1675 on the same ship and probably the about the same age, twenty-two. William Randolph lived in Moreton Morrell Warwickshire west midlands of England. Henrico County Records shows "that John Morton had imported himself and wife from England and was entitled to land grant." Based on this assumption, John was married twice(Deborah Sydenham for first wife is debated?) There is five years difference between second son Winfred 1678 and third son Josiah Morton 1683.

Virginia records shows John Morton married a widow Joane Wade in 1682.
