  2. Source:Lyons, A. B. Lyon Memorial : Massachusetts Families, p. 332, gives this marriage to the son, Elhanah Jr. This is almost certainly wrong based on 1) son not of legal age, 2) the death of first wife Meredith in 1731 making a remarriage about this time likely, and 3) Elhanah Sr.'s probate shows a widow Abigail declining administration. She has not been identified yet, so Wyatt may not be her maiden name.
