    This marriage should not be considered proven, but is highly probable.

    "Seaver shows a marriage to Daniel Porter of Waterbury, but McCracken (TAG 57:68) only lists it as a suggestion, noting that the only known Daniel was ten years younger and his only known marriage is to another woman in 1713."

    For some reason, Dr. McCracken did not consider the second Daniel Porter, born at Farmington 2 Feb 1652, son of the first Daniel of Farmington and uncle of the Daniel born at Simsbury 6 Nov 1686. At the time in question, Farmington and Simsbury were adjoining towns. The fact that this Daniel Porter was some 20 years older than his probable wife, Deborah Holcombe, is somewhat unusual, but by no means unheard of.
