There is much confusion with this John Sibley of Charlestown and John Sibley of Salem. CutterS1intimates that if you assume the death record in 1649 is the death of an infant son, instead of the man, you could think the mentions of John Sibley in both places are one man. This is a slight exaggeration, as the other one has a wife Rachel who m. (2) Thomas Goldwaithe, and this one has a wife Sarah --- who m. (2) Francis Chickering. Sometimes, the John Sibley of Salem is speculated to be the son of John Sibley of Charlestown, but there is no evidence to support that.
