  Notes	"Sprague Families in America", by Dr. Warren Vincent Sprague, page 207.      Elisha Sprague was an elder from 1796 to 1842.  During that period, he solemnized many marriages. (Research): NOTE: There is confusion about this Elisha.  He is commonly reported to have married Elizabeth Essex and to have died bef 1810.  However, "The Henry Samson Family" silver book inicates he die at age 16 in Portsmouth 22 May 1786, "son of Elisha".  There are likely two Elisha Sprague's whose records have become intermixed.  Note that the Elizabeth Essex whom his he reported to have married is 13 years his senior.
