      W. V. Sprague also documented a daughter Maria and a correct married surname although he had the wrong given name for her husband -

      1940-1941 Supplement to Sprague Families In America

      W. V. Sprague

      In this supplement to his 1913 book, W. V. Sprague "..has attempted to identify those descendants of Francis Sprague who were among the pioneers of eastern Maine...."

      =====

      According to her gravestone, Maria was born 26June1822. A number of online family histories report Maria was born in 1832. Maria married in 1847. Although a marriage at 15 is certainly possible a marriage at 25 is more likely. In the 1850 census Maria reports she is 28 years oold and in 1860 38 years old, both ages support a birth year c1822.
