      v. LYDIA, b. 11 Feb. 168­. This dau. is listed in WFW 7 but is not found in CW or DVR.vi. WILLIAM, b. 4 May 1683 (CW 4; WFW 7). There is a problem, about William, and for that matter, about the second Mary and Benjamin as well. These were not recorded at Duxbury, although they may be found, with birth dates, in CW 4. The source of the information is not stated, and it may be supposed that Cornwall was in error. And such may be the case, but they fill an extraordinary gap between 1682 and 1693 in the record at Duxbury. It was long thought that this was the William who m. 24 Dec. 1709 Abiah Sprague of Hingham (see George M. West, William West of Scituate, R.I. St. Andrews, Fla., 1919.) More recent research for Mayflower Families has led to the conclusion that the William who m. Abiah Sprague was b. 3 May 1681, the son of Francis and Susanna (Soule) (MF 3:10, 29).
