Edward Paine 1724-1784 Elizabeth Tiffany

I'm having issues with this line.  If the birth dates are true with the parents, Edward was more than forty years her junior and Elizabeth was in her mid-40's (supposedly  born in 1680)before she even began having children and wouldn't finish until she was in her 90's.

Major Pendleton Fletcher Sr
Parents: Reverend Seth Fletcher and Mary Pendleton

Born abt 1660 Biddeford, York, Maine
Note: There are many birth dates given for him ranging from 1655-1666

Occupation: Constable of Saco 1681

Elected selectman 1685

Military: 1693 Lieutenant of company of soldiers stationed in a stone fort on the river bank of Saco Falls.

Married Sarah Hill 1680 Maine
Died 1697 (probably) Quebec, Canada 
Note: He and two sons were captured by Indians and he died in captivity
Story from History of Saco and Biddeford: 7 Aug 1697 The capture of Lieut. Fletcher, and his two sons, took place the same year; of which Dr. Mather gives the following account. "Three soldiers of Saco Fort cutting some firewood on Cow island for the use of the fort, were by the Indians cut off; while that Lieut. Fletcher with his two sons, that should have guarded them, went a fowling ;and by doing so they likewise fell into the snare. The Indians carrying these three captives down the river in one of their canoes, Lieut. Larrabee, who was abroad with a scout, waylaid them, and firing; on the foremost of the canoes that had three men (Indians) in it, they all three fell and sank in the river of death ; several were killed aboard the other canoes ; and the rest ran their canoes ashore and escaped on the other side of the river; and one of the Fletchers, when all the Indians with him were killed,was delivered out of the hands which had made a prisoner of him , though his poor father afterwards died among them."

Sarah Hill
Parents Roger Hill and Mary Cross

Born 7 Apr 1661 Saco, Biddeford, Maine

Sarah's marriages according to US New England Marriages  prior to 1700. Just for clarification, it is actually stating that William Priest married her after 24 Feb 1699/1700 but before October 1702 in Saco, Maine 

NOTE: Pendleton left his housing and land at Cape Porpoise to her in his will, so she was not penniless. She administered his estate two years after his capture in 1700.

Married 2) William Priest between 24 Feb 1699 and Oct 1702 Saco, Biddeford, Maine

Note:  In book: Colonial Families of the USA, it claims William was her first husband

3) Lieutenant Andrew Brown 23 Jan 1710 Wells, York, Maine

4) John Treworgy after 1723 (which is the death year for Andrew)

CHILDREN 

Note: There are some children that were listed in Family Search back when it was called Ancestral File that could not possibly belong to this couple because their father was captured in 1697  and never seen again. The last possible year for children for this couple would be 1698 and that is only if Sarah was pregnant at the time he was captured.

Also, another source (?) claims there were only two sons and two daughters.

Author John Savage claimed they had 7 children before 1690

Mary Fletcher (never found her in an official record)
Born abt 1683 Biddeford,York, Maine
Married 1) Joseph Sawyer abt 1702 Maine (I have never found proof of this marriage or the next one, but it is doubtful because, in the marriage record, the Mary Sawyer that married John Gibson had a father named John Sawyer, thereby making both marriages/children irrelevant).

Children: unnamed boy, Mary
2) John Gibson 2 Sep 1706 Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts, British Colonial America

Child: John
