The is a record of a "Mrs. Mercy Bridgham" marrying the Rev. Joseph Baxter on Feb. 21, 1715 in Boston. Assuming that Mercy is a widow from a marriage to a Bridgham, this Mrs. Mercy Baxter could be either Mercy Stoddard or Mercy Wensley.
But according to "Sibley's Harvard Graduates, VIII, 1726-1730," p. 7. it was Mercy (Stoddard) Bridgham who married Rev. Joseph Baxter after the death of her husband.
