Jane Lothrop married 1 Nathaniel Worth.

Children:John, William, Abigail & Sarah (Nov 25 1739), Thomas (1741), Sarson (Sept 5 1743), Joseph (Nov 3 1745). They lived in Edgartown. The 4 children baptized in 1739 were probably all born at different times; this was a "baptism catch-up". Since Joseph's only listed parent was his mother, it's quite possible that Nathaniel died around that time.

Jane married 2 Simon Newcomb, her sister Jerusha's husband, after 1751.

Children: Molly (Jan 26 1769, married Moses Gore from New London, CT), a daughter (married Capt. Ratchford of Parsboro, Nova Scotia).

Jane sold all her interests in lands in Edgartown that formerly belonged to her grandfather Richard Sarson in 1754.
