According to marriage records from Bridgwater, his wife was Joan Jewyll. Reference ‘’Gilberts of New England’’, by Brainard and Torrey

Thanks for mentioning this. It is the same person with marriage date but spelling depends on which transcription is taken. I will try and investigate further. I have set up a merge.
