    Children of Josiah Standish and 2nd wife Sarah Allen: 8) Lois m. (1) 29 Nov 1706 Hugh Calkins, m. (2) 21 Mar 1727 John Sprague. Deed 26 Jan 1729, "Lowis Sprague" one of the parties selling land as "heirs in part to the estate of our brother Miles Standish late of Preston deceased", proving her maiden name. This source does not believe she married an Abell inbetween, but that the Lebanon record was an error, perhaps confused by son in law Hugh Calkins marrying Phebe Abell?
