Samuel SIAS I
Phoebe __?__

Husband: Samuel SIAS I
Birth: ca. 1698-1710s, Oyster River Parish [now Durham Twp.], Strafford Co., NH
Death: 1775/6 [he was not in the 1776 NH census]
Will signed: 8 Feb 1775
Father: John SIAS
Mother: Sarah Ann PITMAN

Marriage:

Wife: Phoebe __?__
Death: aft. 1790

Children — said to be born in Durham, Strafford Co., NH:

1. (Daughter) SIAS; m. Mr. HILL; had son, John HILL
2. Samuel SIAS II, b. ca. 1727
3. Anne SIAS, b. ca. 1728; m. Mr. LEATHERS
4. Abigail SIAS, b. ca. 1730
5. Comfort SIAS, b. ca. 1732
6. Elizabeth SIAS, b. ca. 1734
7. John SIAS, b. ca. 1741 or 1754 or 1757/8

The trouble with the later birthdates for John is that we then have a 30-year span of fecundity for Phoebe, which is unrealistic in those times. Of course, it may be that the births of the eldest children are estimated too early.

One source also gives them a daughter:
. Tamesin SIAS, b. 3 Sep 1749
apparently because Tamisen is said to be mentioned in Samuel's will. But another source says she was merely a favored niece, not a daughter, and that she is the daughter of Samuel's brother, Capt. Joseph SIAS. Or were there two Tamisen's?

I cannot be certain this Phoebe SIAS is Samuel's widow, but it seems likely.
