Married (1) by about 1654, Mercy ____. She died 21 Sep 1675. ("Here lieth interred the body of Mercy Carr, first wife of Caleb Carr, who departed this life the 21st day of September, in the 45th year of her age, and in the year of our Lord 1675.") The claim that Mercy's surname was Vaughan is most likely an invention, derived fron confusion with the fact that the stepfather of Caleb's 2nd wife was William Vaughan.
They had nine children: Nicholas, Mercy, Caleb, Samuel, Mercy Paine, John, Edward, & 2 sons who died in infancy.
