Ca 1672 Sarah first married Paul Batt, son of Christopher Batt (6 Jul 1601-10 Aug 1661) & Anne Baynton (23 Sep 1602-bef 21 May 1679). Born 18 Feb 1642/3 in Salisbury, CT. Paul died in Boston, MA in Jul 1678.

In 1680 Sarah second married Lieut. Josiah Torrey, son of Capt. William Torrey (21 Dec 1608-20 Jun 1690) & Elizabeth Fry (-10 Jun 1690). Born on 28 Jan 1658. Josiah died in Mansfield, CT, on 30 Oct 1732; he was 74.356

William was deputy to the General Court and Clerk of the Court for many years. He resided at Medfield and other places in Massachusetts before finally settling at Mansfield.356

On 9 Nov 1681 Elizabeth married Rev. Thomas Weld (12775) , son of Thomas Weld (4360) (ca Jul 1626-17 Jan 1682/3) & Dorothy Whiting (4379) (ca 1628-31 Jul 1694).54 Born ca 1653 in Roxbury, MA. Thomas was baptized in Roxbury, MA, on 12 Jun 1653.78 Thomas died in Dunstable, MA on 9 Jun 1702.54 Education: Harvard 1671.

“According to John Eliot, ‘1679; mont 2, day 27, Mr. Tho. Weld Jun^r confessed & joyned to full communion’ in the First Church in Roxbury (Thwing, History of the First Church in Roxbury). He was Freeman 12 May, 1675; took the oath of allegiance in Roxbury, 1678 or 1679 (Boston Record Commission 29.153, 170). he graduated from Harvard College in the Class of 1671. He taught school in Roxbury: ‘28/2/1674, Roxbury; vote of all the feofees chose Mr. Thomas Weld, Jr., school master for the year ensuing.’ He studied theology with his uncle Ref. Samuel Danforth, Harvard, 1643; began to preach in Dunstable, 1 May 1679; gathered a church and was ordained 16 Dec., 1685; after the deposition of Andors, he represented Deerfield in the Genearl Court, 23 May, 1689. His labors at the pioneer town of Dunstable were much appreciated, and his early death lamented. A monument to him near the state line in the city of Nashua, N.H., makes the erroneous statement that he was ‘probably massacred by Indians while defending the settlement.’ A diary by John Marshall, under date of 1702, says: ‘Mem. on the 11^th day of June last, M^r Thomas Weld, the pastor of the Church of Dunstable was buryed he was an eminent preacher of the word of god, a man well beloued and much Lamented by them that knew him. His death is justly to be accounted a great Loss to the prouince in genrall and to the poor town of dunstable in particuler.’
    The conditions under which Thomas Weld began his ministry in Dunstable are reflected in a deed recorded in Middlesex county (Middlesex Deeds 13.64). According to this deed, Jonathan Tyng of Dunstable, for a consideration of a valuable sum of money, sold to Worshipful Peter Buckley, Esq., of Concord, to the Rev. Samuel Whitney of Billerica and to Mr. Cornelius Waldo Towl of Dunstable, farmers, as also to such of the proprietors of teh Town of Dunstable asare now residing in Dunstable, that is to say, Mrs. Mary Tyng, Mr. Thomas Weld, Samuel Warner, gent., John Blanchard, Robert Parris, John Cummings, gent., Isaac Cummings, John Cummings, Junr., Thomas Cummings, John Acres, Samuel French, Andrew Cooke, Thomas Lund, John Sollendine, Robert Usher, Robert Proctor, Christopher Read, Joseph Wrtght, Joseph Haskell, Obadiah Perry, Chrlstopher Temple, Francis Cooke, John Goole, Samuel Beale, Joseph Parker, Senr., all the right, titIe, interest, &c., which he had by virtue of a deed signed by John Ushind, alias Cassamassit, and Bess Nomphow, Indians, inhabitants of Weymessit, and land formerIy the property of Joseph Wheeler, also in Dunstable; and to Cornellus Waldo, Senr., of Dunstable, the whole farm of 700 acres in Dunstable; dated 29 Jan., 1683.
    “ln 1727, 27 April, Habijah lVeld (then of Woburn), gent., allas clerk, deeded to John Usher of Dunstable, cooper, several pleces of land in Dunstable, among them 35 acres adjoining the exact spot where the house was built for the first settled minister, on the west side of the Merrimack River, by measure 33 poles. That Rev. Thomas Weld died a naturel death rather than a violent one at the hands of Indians is proved by the account of his administrator, Nathanlel Brewer of Roxbury, who pald Dr. Minot £1:4s, Dr. Pres cot £ l:4s, and nurse Shedd £2, for attendance on him in his last illness (Middlesex Probate Records 6. 459). The charges for his funernl were £7 4s, 5d.
    “The inventory of Rev. Thomas Weld was taken by Rev. Nehemiah Walter, Timothy Stevens, and Samuel Williams in Roxbury, 18 Nov., l7O2; books ln Cambrldge by John Hancock and Thomas Clark, 25 Nov., 1702; and the estate in Dunstable by Robert Parris, Jonathan Richardson, and Joseph
Farwell, 24 Nov., 1702.”54

On 4 Jul 1683 when John was 23, he married Sarah Newton (20462) , daughter of Rev. Roger Newton (-7 Jun 1683) & Mary Hooker (7438) (ca 1624-4 Feb 1676), in New Haven, CT.64 Born 24 Jan 1661/2 in Milford, CT. Sarah was baptized 26 Jan 1661/2.64 Sarah died in Braintree, MA on 20 Aug 1725.

John Wilson and Sarah Newton were first cousins as their mothers were sisters.

On 30 Aug 1682 when Susannah was 17, she married Rev. Grindal Rawson (12167) , son of Edward Rawson (4144) (16 Apr 1615-27 Aug 1693) & Rachel Perne (5461) (ca 1619-11 Oct 1677), in Medfield, MA.270 Born on 23 Jan 1659 in Boston, MA.25 Grindal died in Mendon, MA 6 Feb 1714/5.512 Buried in Old Cemetery, Mendon. Education: Harvard 1678.

From Crane’s Rawson Family genealogy:320
    “His wife, writing to Dr. Cotton Mather, after the death of her husband, says, ‘after he had taken his first degree, he was invited by his brother-in-law, the Rev. Mr. Samuel Torrey, to come to his house and study divinity there, which he did, with such proficiency that he was advised to enter upon preaching. He preached his first sermon at Medfield, with great acceptation, and after two months’ occasional performances at other places, he received an invitation to Mendon,’ in the county of Worcester, Mass. This was Oct. 4, 1680. He continued to preach there until April 7, 1684, when he was permanently settled.
    “Cotton Mather, who was a classmate and friend of Grindal Rawson, in his preface to his sermon which he preached at the funeral of the latter, quotes in the language used by President Urian Oakes, at the Commencement of 1678, when he conferred the degrees on the class of that year. It appears that ‘he took notice of three’ [gave honorary degrees to?] John Cotton, Cotton Mather, and Grindal Rawson; and of the latter as follows [translated from the Latin]:
        “‘The third, somewhat high-sounding, is Grindal Rawson; sprung likewise from a most illustrious stock; for his Hon. father holds a high place in the State; the very pious and orthodox John Wilson, a truly apostolic man, was his great-grandmother’s brother [actually grandmother’s brother], and the Right Reverend Edmund Grindal, sometime Archbishop of Canterbury, a most saintly man, and in the Archbishopric little less than a Puritan, his great-great-grandmother’s brother. And my God grant that in learning, holiness and excellence of character, he3 may resemble both Wilson and Grindal.’
    “Cotton Mather, in his sermon referred to, says of Grindal Rawson:
    “‘“We generally esteemed him a truly pious man, and a very prudent one, and a person of temper, and every way qualified for a friend that might be delighted in. We honored him for his industrious oversight of the Flock in the wilderness which had been committed to him, and the variety of successful pains which he took for the good of those to whom God had therefore exceedingly endeared him. We honored him for his intellectual abilities, which procured frequent applications to him and brought him sometimes upon our most conspicuous theatres; and we usually took it for granted that things would be failry done where he had an hand in the doing of them. We honored him for his doing the work of an Evangelist among our Indians, of whose language he was a master that had scarce an equal, and for whose welfare his projections and performances were such as render our loss herein hardly to be repaired. Such services are Pyramids.” And Dr. Metcalf, in his forthcoming History of Mendon, remarks that “he was an excellent scholar and an eminent divine. His reputation as a theologian was of such a character that the General Court sometimes referred grave and serious questions of ecclesiastical polity to him for decision.” It is said, “he was complimented as being the General Court’s oracle.”’
    “The Rev. Grindal Rawson and the Rev. Samuel Danforth, pastor of the church in Taunton, were instructed by the Commissioners for the Propagation of the Gospel, in 1698 to visit the Indians in the American Plantations in New England and parts adjacent. The account given by them of their visit is quite interesting, and published in the Mass. Historical Collections, 1st series, vol. 10.
    “The following order was passed by the General Court, July 31, 1692: ‘Ordered, that the Rev. John Hale, Rev. Grindal Rawson, Mr. John Wise and Mr. John Emerson, Ministers of God’s word, be desired to accompany the General and Forces in the expedition against Canada, to carry on the worshipping of God in that expedition.’ Whether they, or either of them, accompanied the expedition under Sir William Phips in 1690 is unknown.
    “Several interesting anecdotes are recorded of the Rev. Grindal Rawson, in connectoin with Cotton Mather, but the limits of this memorial [Crane’s Rawson Family genealogy] will not permit of their insertion.
    “Grindal Rawson was the author of a work entitled ‘Confession of Faith,’ written in the Indian and English tongues. Two, at least, of his sermons were published; one, an Artillery Election sermon, ‘preached to and at the request of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Comapny, in 1703;’ the other, an Election sermon, ‘preached before his Excellency the Governor, the Hon. Council and Representatives of teh Province of Massachusetts Bay, in New England, on May 25, 1709.’ This latter serman was, in its tone, bold, manly and eloquent, and ‘published by the desire of the House of Representatives.’ A more extended notice of Grindal Rawson may be found in Cotton Math’s ‘Mantissa,’ in his preface to his sermon before mentioned. He died ‘on the Lord’s day, about sunset, Feb. 6 1715, a. 56.’
    “The following are the epitaphs on the gravestones erected to the memory of himself and wife, in the burying-ground in Mendon:
    “‘Here lyeth Interr’d / the Body of the Reverend Mr. / GRINDAL RAWSON, / The late faithful and learned Pastor / of the church of Christ in Mendon, / who died Feby. 6, 1715, / and entered 6 days into y^e 57th. year / of his age Deceased the 35th. / year of his ministry / The memory of the Just is Blessed.’
    “‘Here lies inter’d y^e / Remains of Mrs. Susan-/na Rawson, Relect of / y^e late Rev. Mr. Grindal / Rawson Pastor of y^e / Church of Christ in / Mendon and daughter / to y^e Rev.

Rev. Grindall Rawson d. 6 Feb 1714/5, “Entered 6 Days into ye 57th year of his age. Deceased the 35th year of his ministry”.
