The Scituate VRs however, have a birth record for Benoni Sharp, "s. Deborah (w. Joseph Gannett)", born two months before Deborah's marriage to Joseph. probably an illegitimate child, acknowledged by the father, so given the father's name.

William Spencer of Wantage, Sussex Co 1737 or 39 to ABT DEC 1780 married Sarah Tharp (born 07 APR 1733) in ABT 1763.Sarah Tharp (Tharp, Tharpe, Thorp, Thorpe) was previously the wife of Job Tharp, deceased 1761, both of Woodbridge NJ.
Sarah's maiden name was SHARP or SHARPE.Her father was Benoni Sharp 1682-1750, mother unknown.
William Spencer and Sarah Sharp/Tharp had children:
- Nathan Spencer 1764-1841
- Ichabod Spencer 1766-1856
- Sarah Spencer 1767-
- William Spencer 1770- died young?
- Elizabeth Spencer 1772-
- Morris Spencer 1773-
After William Spencer's death in late 1780, it appears that Sarah married Samuel Morris of Wantage, sometime between 1783 and 1792.She appears on the rolls of the 1st Baptist Church of Wantage in 1783 as Sarah Spencer.Sarah Morris administered the estate of Samuel Morris in MAY 1792, and her son Ichabod Spencer was a bondsman.Samuel Morris was listed along with Nathan Spencer and Ichabod Spencer as an heir to William Spencer on a deed … I have no official record of the marriage of Sarah Sharp/Tharp/Spencer to Samuel Morris though.
