    Notes:

    I have estimated the birth years of the children.

    A tree at Rootsweb's Worldconnect has three different wives for William. This needs more research to confirm. Torrey's "New England Marriages to 1700" p 491 has two wives for this William: Mary Walker and Prudence [unknown].

    The will of William Earle of Portsmouth is dated 13 Nov 1713, and proved 8 Feb 1714. It mentions but does not name his wife; 5 sons: William, Thomas, Ralf, John, & Caleb; 3 daughters: Mary Borden, Mary Hix/Hines (possibly d-in-law), & Prudence Durfie; grandson Caleb Earle; granddaughter Joan Earle, d/o son Caleb.

  2. 5.  Prudence Unknown died 18 Jan 1714/15.

    Notes:

    Prudence's date of death is given as 18 Jan, but no year. It is implied that it was the same year as her husband William, whose date of death is just above it, but I can't be sure.
