About Mary Martha Bonham, 2nd wife
http://jtbullock.com/Tree/J_Bonham.html#MD
"Mary M. Drake was born about 1713 (some say between 1710 and 1715), probably in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, the only known child of Jacob Drake and Christian Molleson. Her father died probably right after she was born, but definitely before she was married as she was sometimes known as Mary Bebout, the surname of her mother’s second husband. She married Amariah Bonham, who had been recently widowed with five children, about 1749 probably in Scotch Plains, New Jersey. That was the year she joined The Scotch Plains Baptist Church and then they both left it and moved away. Although only one child is known from the marriage, ancestor Jacob, Mary raised Amariah’s other children. It is not known when and where Mary M. Drake Bonham died, but she did die before her husband Amariah wrote his will in 1802."
Mary is also referred to in some texts as Mary Bebout. This would seem appropriate as her father died when she was quite young, and her mother remarried to Peter Bebout/ Debout shortly thereafter.
Amariah Bonham, son of Hezekiah, Sr. & (2) wife, Mary (Bishop) Bonham, was
born ca 1708; married ca 1735/6, (1) Eunice King, daughter of John King. She died
5 Feb 1748/9 (some records say 1745/48).
Amariah, with small children in the household, apparently married shortly after the
death of Eunice. He married (2) Mary Drake, probably ca 1749. She was born ca 1710-1715,
daughter of Jacob & Christian (Molleson) Drake
