His first wife could possibly been Mary Riggs (1666 - 1701), daughter of Edward Riggs III (1636 - 1715) & Mary Munn (1640 -1688). There is no FindAGrave Memorial for Mary (nee Riggs). Note from manager of this memorial: Other research indicates that Mary Riggs was married instead to Joseph Lindsly/Lindley, John's brother.
