      He married first 24-Dec-1719 Bridgewater [MD 16:186; BriVR 2:176, 278] Susanna Hayward; born 17-May-1695 Bridgewater [MD 5:248; BriVR 1:154]; died 01-Nov-1722 Bridgewater BriVR 2:534]; daughter of Joseph and Hannah (Mitchell) Hayward.

      He married second 27-Nov-1723 Middleborough [MD 4:73; MidVR 1:27] Abigail Tomson; born 14-Feb-1696/97 Middleborough [MD 2:41; MidVR 1:5]; died 19-May-1786 Bridgewater [MD 54:132; WBriVR 211 has "1766," an error for 1786]; buried Old Graveyard, West Bridgewater [MD 54:132; Latham 15]; daughter of Jacob and Abigail (Wadsworth) Tomson and a fourth generation descendant of Francis Cooke of the Mayflower. MFIP Cooke recounts that at the Jun-1721 Court Abigail accused Jonathan Inglee of Middleborough of being the father of her child; a footnote there says "She is apparently the Mrs. Abigail, widow of Mr. Jonathan Packard who died May 19, 1766 in 91st yr. (Bridgewater Epitaphs p. 15 [Latham 15]), but the year or age is surely wrong." Latham's transcription of Abigail's gravestone is in error, and is probably the source of the erroneous year in WBriVR 211. Abigail's gravestone clearly reads: "Memento Mori / In Memory of Mrs / Abagail wido to Mr / Jonathan Packard, who / departed this life may / ye, 19th 1786 in ye, 90th / Year of her Age." See my recent photographs of her gravestone, and my article on the subject - Dale H. Cook, "Abigail Tomson's Gravestone," MD 54:132-133.
