...History of the Andrews Family by H.F. Andrews states that Abigail Hovey and John Ayers had children: Edward b Feb. 12, 1658, Mark b Dec. 14, 1661 and Nathaniel b July 6, 1664. [Note: since "John Aires" m. "Abigall Hovey in Springfield, Mass., in 1672, that is unlikely. See Source:Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts, United States. Vital Records to 1850, Vol. 2, p. 1648.]
