       Ann Derifield was born in England circa 1610.1 She married, as his 1st wife, by 1639, Sgt. Thomas/1 Spencer, son of Gerard/a Spencer and Alice Whitbred, with whom she had 3 children.1 She died by 1645, when her husband remarried.1
     "The will of Barnabas Derifield of Braintree, Mass., proved in 1680, gave all his estate to his kinsman Samuel Spencer, who was to pay to his brothers Obadiah and Thomas Spencer 40s. each. Since these were the three sons of Sergt. Thomas by his unidentified first wife, and since the will of Sergt. Thomas cuts off his son Samuel with little, "he having received a good portion from his Uncle," it follows that the first wife was sister of Barnabas Derifield. Full details of this connection will appear in an article by Mrs. W. C. Clark in New England Hist. and Gen. Register (July 1951)."1
