Birth Dateabt 1648
Death Date1727
Notes for Joseph (Spouse 1)
Well known New England Wilson families researcher Ken Stevens notes that his data indicates that our ancestor, Joseph Wilson, born 1 June, 1660 in Ipswich, was not the Joseph Wilson who married Sarah Lord 24 April 1678 in Andover, Essex County, but rather it was his uncle, Joseph, who married as his second wife, Sara Lord, Sarah having saved her life by "confessing" to be a witch.
Sarah died in 1727, age 79 years, which would indicate she was born about 1648, "either five years younger than the first Joseph or 12 years older than the other."
We would suspect that, based upon the data researched by Ken Stevens, the Joseph Wilson who is our ancestor, was in fact born 10 Nov. 1643. A son of that marriage of Joseph Wilson and Sarah Lord, John, was born 23 Feb. 1682 in Andover, and in 1716, John married Mercy Wright of Andover.
