Philip Ammidowne continued on in Rehoboth working on his farm, and as a cooper. He married his first wife Mehitable Perrin (Perry) there in 1698, she died a year later in child birth. Her child was Henry.
In 1700 he remarried in Rehoboth to 2nd wife: Joanna Warfield, who was from Mendon, daughter of Deacon John Warfield. Deciding to settle in Mendon, Phillip and Joanna raised the five children they had together, plus Henry son of Mehitable. Joanna also died at a young age, only living to be 30 years or so. Philip needing a mother to raise his children, married Joanna's sister, 3rd wife: Ithamar, only two months after the death of his wife in 1711.
