  1. Daniel Albert's intention to marry again to Sarah Pierce is recorded 28 Mar 1746 (see Source:Nourse, Henry Stedman. Birth, Marriage, and Death Register, Church Records and Epitaphs of Lancaster, Massachusetts, 1643-1850).
  2. Possibly the daughter of Henry Houghton and Abigail Barron. Source:Ford, Andrew E. History of the Origin of the Town of Clinton, Massachusetts, 1653-1865, p. 129, says that in 1755, Henry Houghton of Leominster transferred property to the children of Daniel Albert. By this time Daniel's wife Abigail was dead, so this appears to be a grandfather transferring property to his grandchildren. Source:Nourse, Henry Stedman. Birth, Marriage, and Death Register, Church Records and Epitaphs of Lancaster, Massachusetts, 1643-1850, p. 273, notes in 1708: "Abigail [baptized], Daughter of Henry Houghton his Wife having owned the Covenant, at Watertown at Mr. Gibb's Church."
