Anthony Colby married his widow, and they sold the land to James Pennyman, who sold the land to Stevenson (SUFFOLK DEEDS, 14 vols. [Boston, 1880-1906], 11:176-77 [FHL #974.46 R2s]). Hence, Anthony Colby's wife was 1st married to a Waterman, given name unknown.

Susannah Whittridge petitioned the court on 28 Mar 1682 to sell part of the estate of her former husband, Anthony Colby, for her necessary support (THE PROBATE RECORDS OF ESSEX COUNTY, 3 vols.
