Mary Deering

From Re: Roger Deering, of Kittery, Maine, & Sarah Gerrish

Of Roger b. 1648, Old Kittery and Her Families says "His wife Mary, born in 1649 as a deposition shows, survived him."
This Roger's son, also named Roger, b. about 1678, had a wife named Sarah. Old Kittery and Her Families identifies her as Sarah Scammon, but other sources identify her as Sarah Jordan, including 'New England Captives Carried to Canada' which says that in 1723 "...the Deering house was attacked [by Indians], Roger's wife, Sarah, two soldiers and two other persons were killed and that about the same time, John Hunnewell and Robert Jordan as well as Mary Scammon and Deering's three children were seized and carried away while picking berries.
But there were no Deering children. The three carried away were Mary Scammon (age about 12 years) of Saco, Me., who was visiting her aunt (Sarah, daughter of Dominicus Jordan), Thomas, son of Jedediah Jordan and cousin of Mrs. Deering, and John Hunnewell, apprentices both."
Roger Deering married second, Elizabeth Litton/Lydston, widow of Josiah Skillin.
