She is not mentioned in her husband's will and the website has no further information beyond speculating that she may have died before David came to North America.
169. DAVID FFISKE (Jeffrey, Robert, Simon, Simon, William, Symond). He was of Watertown, was admitted a freeman of the colony in March, 1637-8. He had gone to America, probably the preceding year, as he was not a proprietor until Feb., 1637. Before 1644 he was a grantee of one lot and a purchaser of six other lots. His homestall of twenty-two acres was granted to John Kingsbury, of whom he had purchased it just prior to his remove to Dedham. This latter property was bounded on the north by the Cambridge line and the property of J. Coolidge; south by the highway (Pond Road); west by land of J. Coolidge, and east by that of B. Bullard. The total amount of his real estate was 227 acres. He was a man of standing in the community, and early held office. In 1639 he was elected a member of the Board of Selectmen, and again in 1642. Was a juror in 1652-4-5-7. His will is dated Sept. 10, 1660, and was proved in Jan. following. The instrument does not mention the name of his wife, but one daughter, Fitch, and one son David; who was sole executor and residuary legatee, giving him his "houses, lands, cattle, and chattels." Signed the mark of David Fiske and seal. (So signed probably on account of age and infirmity). Inventory, Jan. 10, 1661, £78 9s. 1d. Aug. 6, 1673, the son sold his homestall and two other lots of his land in Watertown to John Coolidge.
His wife was Sarah Smyth, daughter of Edmund Smyth, of Wrentham, Co. Suffolk, England
