The wives of Jehu Burr and John Cable

"John Cable was related in some way to Jehu Burr. First, they were paired in all their migrations. Both first resided in Roxbury, and moved to Springfield in 1636, where both were among the four leading citizens. In contributions made on 13 January 1638 for building a house for Rev. George Moxon and for his maintenance, the largest donations on each occasion were made by William Pynchon, Henry Smith, Jehu Burr and John Cable [SpTR 1:15]. Pynchon and his son-in-law Smith remained in Springfield and were the most prominent citizens in the town for many years to come. Burr and Cable both departed Springfield in 1641 and participated in the founding of Fairfield in that year.

Second, in his will John Cable appointed 'my loving kinsman Jehu Burr and John Burr my overseers.' The connection was probably through the first wife of Cable, or through Burr's wife."[1]
