Lieut. John Stearns, s/o John Stearns and Sarah Mixer, m. 6 Sep 1676 Elizabeth Bigelow, d/o John Bigelow and Mary Warren.
[Note: based on birth of daughter Elizabeth in Watertown 23 Sep 1677, this date makes sense, but is not found in VRs of Watertown or Billerica, and its source is unknown. No marriage location is specified. However, all this does not prevent this date from being copied into many published genealogies without any supporting evidence. The 1986 Source:Bigelow Society. Bigelow Family Genealogy says "circa 1676", which is probably a more accurate statement of what is known.]
