All, I'm new to your list and would just like to say hello. I was born in Salem and am a descentant of John Proctor (b 1595) via his son John Proctor and Martha Harper, and their son Benjamin........ I'm now in the process of verifying my mother's records of 25 years ago, where she did research in her home town of Danvers for her ancestors. She has a note indicating that John Proctor's (1595) FIRST wife was Martha WAINWRIGHT with 2 children and his SECOND wife was Martha ______ with 6 children, but records at the LDS don't show this Wainwright, nor can I find it anywhere else. Anyone have any info on this?? LDS also has John [SR] married to a Martha Harper in 1630, and John [JR] married to a Martha Harper in 1652.......is this accurate? Bruce Farrar
