"Anne Wheeler of Salisbury," wife of Thomas Riggs Jr. of Gloucester, married at Amesbury 22 Nov 1687. Her twin was James, born the same day (Salisbury VR p. 252).

Her husband's brother John Riggs married Ruth Wheeler on 1 Jan 1689/90 (Babson p. 131). Ruth was probably Ann's sister, born 15 July 1671 to Henry (Hoyt). If so, two Riggs brothers married two Wheeler sisters (inference).
