Sarah Weeden

From Steven Kilburn:

I found with the help of the Rhode Island Historical Society the will of John Bailey written on May 8, 1733 where mentions his daughter Abigail Weeden and son in law William Weeden are to receive various monies. John also mentions his grandchildren of Abigail, Mary and William Weeden still under the age of 21. William Weeden b. 1619 d. 1676, so one can see this William could not be married to Abigail Bailey. She may have married William II son of William b.1619 or another William descendent from other parents.

The mother of William b. 1619 children is unknown to my knowledge at this point, though Torrey "New England Marriages prior to 1700" suggests it was a Sarah (parents unknown). Further study is needed.
