- From Dottie Middleton, correspondent, note of June 2, 2016
Online Fordington St George parish records show that Joannaand Ralph were married 15 Aug 1623; unfortunately, theonline transcript doesn't name their parents. John Spraguewas baptized at St George 23 May 1624 and Jonathan on 27November 1625.
John died in 1692 and is buried in Bell Rock Cemetery,Malden, MA, with about 30 other Spragues. Some researchers(Sprague database, familysearch, IGI, and Michael Russell,OPC, who wrote "Pilgrims from Fordington The Sprague FamilyFrom Fullers to Founding Fathers") say Jonathan died in1650 in Malden. Copy-cat "research?" Access to first-handdocuments I haven't found? I don't know. In any case,Jonathan has no headstone at Bell Rock Cemetery, and nonein Massachusetts that I could find on findagrave. There isone Sprague headstone at Bell Rock with only the surname;that might or might not be Jonathan, but we don't know.Further research is needed. Watkins' noting "no latermention" of Jonathan and speculating that he might havedied in childhood is somewhat misleading. Existing StGeorge parish records do not mention Jonathan after hisbaptism; however, the 1626 records were very badly waterdamaged and the 1629 records are missing.
