There is also information on the web that he married a third time--a widow Sarah Starley. However, I don't have a date for that marriage and with the death dates in 1727 of Matthew and Elizabeth Griswold (with him dying in June and her in July) I don't see how that could be. I wish there would be proof of these marriages!! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
