She, the possible widow of Elkanah Watson, married, second, as his second wife, after Apr 21,1696, John Freeman Jr.
Children(by first marriage): Elkanah Watson Jr, John Watson, William Watson, George Watson, Phebe Watson Freeman(wife of Edmund Freeman), Mercy Watson Freeman, and Mary Watson Freeman Freeman.
Children(by second marriage): Elizabeth Freeman Bacon.
***Older sources and family tradition state that Mercy/Marcy married first Elkanah Watson and second John Freeman. In 1935 George Ernest Bowman demonstrated that the widow of Elkanah Watson did marry John Freeman, but he could find no evidence that she was Mercy Hedges. So her parent connection, and even her maiden name, may be in doubt.
