Pages in Ancestral File identify this Mehitable Shedd as daughter of Daniel Shed, Jr., son of the immigrant Daniel Shed. The Shed genealogy does not list her as a child of Daniel, Jr., and the records seems to be comprehensive, although there is a four year gap between Daniel, Jr.’s second and third children, Daniel and Abigail, into which Mehitable could fit if born about 1674. This requires further investigation. Torrey221 records this marriage as “DAVIS, John & Mehitable [?SHEDD]; b 1683; Groton” (with square brackets in the original), so it is possible that the surname Shedd for John Davis’ wife is not correct.
