” His widow, Ann, d. July 20, 1673, aged ab. 57. [NO] [This man's son John married, as his first wife, Ann, daughter of John Wilcox. There is no evidence that this John Hall had a second wife.] [1]
"Ann Wilcox has often been assigned to John1 Hall, Sr., as a second wife, in former accounts. L. Effingham de Forest in Moore and Allied Families (1938), 289, gives reasons for rejecting this view, though he leaves the question open. The will of John1 Hall names no wife, though he survived Ann; she was called wife (not widow) of John (not described as senior) in the record of her death. She was more suitable in age for John,2 and presumably John2 was married before his marriage to a widow when he was about 55 years old."[5]
