About 2nd wife of Francis Sprague

Francis Sprague married (2) by about 1630, _____ _____. :

Their children

3. JOHN, b. say 1630; m. by about 1655 Ruth Bassett, daughter of WILLIAM BASSETT (on 8 June 1655 "we present John Sprague and Ruth Bassett, of Duxburrow, for fornication before they were married [PCR 3:82]). (John Sprague is treated in detail by Maclean W. McLean, who estimates his birth as about 1635, whereas we make him slightly older [TAG 41:178-81].)

4. Dorcas Sprague b. Abt 1632 in Duxbury, Plymouth Co., MA and died August 15 1702 in Lebanon, New London Co. CT 70 years old. Married Ralph Earle of Portsmouth, Newport Co., RI. October 26, 1659 Francis deeded land to his son-in-law Ralph Earle of Rhode Island. This land, given on the occasion of the marriage of Ralph Earle to Dorcas Sprague, daughter of Francis Sprague and Anne, was apparently a wedding present and may have been some of the land purchased at Dartmouth, considering that the newlyweds almost immediately settled at Dartmouth, Rhode Island after their marriage. Several months after this, in 1660, Francis Sprague's (wife or daughter) Anne died in Duxbury.
