    Peleg Kingsley, b. Swansea 23 May 1735, will dated 5 mar 1793, m. (1) Swansea 7 Jul 1758 Sarah Woods, m. .(2) Rehoboth [sic, Swansea] Margaret Peck, m. (3) 14 Oct 1787 Debore Mason [appears to misidentify which Deborah Mason].
    [Note: the Deborah Mason claimed by this source, d/o Nathaniel Mason and Deborah Boomer, was born 1763, not 1753, significant since we are talking about marrying a 52-year old widower in 1787. Further Source:Mason, Alverdo Hayward. Genealogy of the Sampson Mason Family, p. 101 shows no marriage for her, suggesting the father moved out of Swansea to Sackville, Nova Scotia, soon after his remarriage in 1763 (first wife apparently died around Deborah's birth), then to Adams, MA, about 1770, where he died 1812 leaving no probate, but likely placing any marriage of his daughter, if there was one, in Adams, MA.]
