According to Vital Records of Roxbury, Massachusetts, Nathanael Gary and Anne Rice were married in Roxbury on 12 November 1685.[1] Torrey's New England Marriages to 1699 has the marriage of Nathaniel Gary (born 1663) to Ann Rice (born 1661) in Roxbury/Woodstock, Connecticut, on 12 November 1685.[2] Torrey and his cited sources thus identify Anne as Anna, the daughter of Deacon Edward Rice and Anne (Bent) Rice who was born in Sudbury, Massachusetts, on 19 November 1661. That Anna Rice is the only girl named Ann/Anna/Anne Rice born in Massachusetts in the right time period to have married in 1685. However, she is also thought to be the Anna Rice who married Thomas ____ (inferred to be Thomas Rice) in Marlborough, Massachusetts, in 1681. Because Marlborough was formed from part of Sudbury, it is likely that the Anna Rice who was born in Sudbury is the same girl who later married in Marlborough. Accordingly, the origins of the Anne Rice who married Nathanael Gary are undetermined.
Nathaniel Gary and wife Anne were parents of Nathaniel, Hannah, Sarah, Ann, Joshua, Elisha, Mehitable, Mary, Rachel, Elizabeth, Jemima, Naomi, Rebecca, and Abigail.
Anne died before about 1712, when Nathaniel Gary was remarried to Mary Fairbanks in Ashford, Connecticut.

There is no hint of an Elisha there.
