Mary Case, dau. of Richard Case and Elizabeth Purchase, b. circa 1669 at Hartford, Conn. She d. Sept. 10, 1757 at Simsbury, Conn. (g.s.).

On an unrecorded date after May 1704, Mary m. as his 3rd and last wife, Joseph Phelps, Jr., Esq., s. of Joseph Phelps and Hannah Newton, b. of record Aug. 2, 1667 at Windsor, Conn. He d. Jan. 20, 1749/50 at Simsbury, Conn., Æ 83 (g.s.) They had four children b. at Simsbury: Amos, John (d.y.), Elizabeth (Hoskins) and David.

Joseph Phelps, Jr. was previously twice married. By early 1689 he m. 1) Mary Collier (q.v. Collyer), dau. of Joseph Collier and Mary Sanford, b. circa 1669 at Hartford, Conn. She d. Mar. 13, 1697/8 at Simsbury after three children: Joseph, Hannah (Humphrey), and Mary (d.y.).

On Nov. 9, 1699 of record at Simsbury, Joseph m. 2) Sarah Case, dau. of John Case and Sarah Spencer, b. of record Apr. 20, 1676 at Simsbury, Conn. She d. of record May 2, 1704 at Simsbury, Æ 29, after two children: Sarah (d.y.) and Damaris (Mills).

Despite the same maiden surname of Joseph's 2nd and 3rd wives, and despite circumstantial suggestions otherwise, there is no proof the respective father's (John Case of Simsbury and Richard Case of Hartford) were related to each other.
