Marriage Notes
• Although the marriage of Robert Ashley and the widow Horton is not recorded in the Springfield records, there is little doubt that it was actually consummated, for it is known that he married about 1641, that his wife bore the christian name Mary, and that after 1641 the widow Horton’s name disappears from the records. She was the widow of Thomas Horton of Springfield, who had died the previous summer, leaving her with two children, one three years old and the other an infant.3480, pp 4-5
