The daughter of my ancestor, REV. HENRY SMITH, and his second wife, Dorothy Smith, she was "much sought after as a wife" married four times:
(1) Rev. John Blakeman about 1653
(2) Thomas Hall on October 31, 1665
(3) MARK SAINT JOHN (my ancestor) on January 21, 1690 (his second wife)
(4) Deacon Isaac Moore in 1691 in Hartford, Conn.
Rev. Adam Blakeman, the father of Dorothy's first husband, Rev. John Blakeman, had an unsuccessful law suit with a John Thomas for the hand of Widow Blakeman (Dorothy). In 1665, he (Adam) wrote in his will that his "daughter" [actually his daughter-in-law] would receive five pounds if she would not marry John Thomas or continue a widow for five years. She obviously didn't marry him.
