Thomas Danforth, deputy governor of MA. She was born 11-11-1646. His second wife was Rebecca Prescott, who died the same year as him. He and Rebecca had no children, but he had 6 kids with Sarah. All except the first and 6th child died within a few weeks of birth. He died April 7, 1723 at age 82. Since Rebecca would have been older when they married, she might have also been a widow with Prescott as her married name.
