Narrative

William was the first white boy born in Epsom. He married a Sarah TAYLOR who was "probably" the daughter of John and Sarah (DEARBORN) TAYLOR. His second wife was Sarah's sister. Blake, Carlton E., "Descendants of Jasper Blake: Emigrant from England to hampton,N.H., ca. 1643, 1649-1979," pg. 226.


The Blake genealogy as the last three children born to Elizabeth Taylor, Sarah's sister. Other works have Elizabeth married to Samuel Batchelder (e.g., the Batchelder genealogy).
