    Teague1 Drisko and his wife Sarah (Pitman?) of Exeter had a son John2 Drisko of Exeter who married Mary3 Getchell (Daughter of Samuel2, Samuel1) Getchell of Salisbury and they proceeded to have a bunch of children recorded Salisbury. This family moved to Scarborough then Brunswick, Cumberland, Maine and became progenitors of the Drisko family of Addison, Washington , Maine. John2 Drisko’s widow Mary survived him and did not remarry. (Don't conflate this John2 Drisko with John1 Drisco and his son John2 Drisco of Wells. John1 Drisco of Wells had a widow Sarah [Emerson?] which proves they are not the same man. Sarah wife of Teague was Sarah Pitman named “Sarah Thrisco” in her father’s will and Sarah married 2nd to Benjamin Jones and third to Nathaniel Taylor.

    This source seems to conflate two different men of the name John Drisco. This is not the son of John1 Drisco of Wells.
