Shows Thomas Grigsby of Marden married An Champion.
It appears that the PR does not show whether Ann was a widow or a spinster. Whilst the fact that Ann had children with Thomas indicates that she was younger than him, marrying a 54 year old Ann was quite likely a older bride than most and may well have been a widow.
Thomas may have had more children with Anne, but I think the two for whom I do not know of baptisms were (as I show them) more likely the offspring of Sylvester. See notes attached to marriage with Sylvester. There was about a 17 month gap between Thomas and Ann marrying and having their first known child. Time for one child who survived infancy before John, but only if Ann was pregnant at marriage.
