[add comment] [edit] two sybil brighams [21 August 2011]NEHGR, Vol. 61, p. 23, "Inscriptions at Sudbury": In memory of Mrs. Sibbler Maynar'd wife of Mr. Zechariah Maynar'd who died Feb'r: 15th: 1778. In ye 56th: year of her Age. [Since she was 55, she was born about 1722-1723.] In VR Hopkinton: Godard, Sybel, [died] Sept. 27, 1807. [Sibbil Goddard, wid., old age, a. 89. CR1] [Age 89, so born about 1718.] Of these two, the daughter of Samuel Brigham and Elizabeth Morse who was born in 1718, is most likely to be the wife of Ebenezer Goddard than Zachariah Maynard. The two marriages are both recorded in the 1730's, (Framingham: Goddard, Ebenezer and Sabylla Brigham of Marlboro, Jan. 27, 1736"; Sudbury: "Maynard, Zachariah and Sibil Brigham, --, 173-[torn]"). So there is no possibility that one woman married both husbands. I removed Person:Sybil Brigham (1) from this page. --Jrich 18:14, 21 August 2011 (EDT)
