ELISHA, 2nd known child of William Heath, was born about 1642 (died Yarmouth 17 May 1732 "in his 91st year." He married by 1666 Mary _____ (eldest child b. 30 November 1666). (Mary is said to be daughter of Edward Sturgis, but below.) In his will William Hedges named a daughter Mary Sturgis, and she is identified as wife of Samuel Sturgis principally because there is no other available Sturgis with wife Mary; in addition, Mr. Elisha Hedge is one of those who was supposed to assist the widow Mary Sturgis in settling the estate of Samuel Sturgis. Most sources claim that Elisha and William Hedges married Mary and Elizabeth Sturgis, but there is no direct evidence for this, and the known marriage of Mary Sturgis to one of the sons of Edward Sturgis is sufficient to explain other associations between the two families.
