Find A Grave: "Wife Redcap"; bio claims the following information: "Joseph Redknap married by about 1642 _____ _____. They had four children: Hannnah Nicholson, Benjamin, Nathaniel, & Sarah Laughton (or Laighton). Joseph Redknap would have been about forty-five years old when his first child was born. No record has been found which provides the name of his wife, and she is mentioned in only one record, when Joseph was presented at court in 1644 for refusing to have his child baptized. In his 1914 treatment of the Belknap family of Lynn, while discussing a document which at one point confused the surnames Belknap and Redknap, Henry Wyckoff Belknap made the unsupported claim that "Joseph Rednap married Sarah, dau[ghter] of Thomas Laughton." Thomas Laughton married at Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire, on 3 July 1632 Sarah Lenthall, and so could not have had a daughter old enough to be the wife of Joseph Redknap. Furthermore, Thomas Laughton Junior married a daughter of Joseph Redknap, who would have been his niece if Redknap had married a daughter of Thomas Laughton Senior. We conclude that the claim that Joseph Redknap married a daughter of Thomas Laughton Senior derives from confusion with the known marriage of Thomas Laughton Junior to Sarah Redknap, and that the identity of the wife of Joseph Redknap remains unknown."
