Martha Taber/Tabor

In 1998, Joan Verdoom, posted some information about the family of Stephen Washburn and Martha Tabor.
(She did not list a death date for either one of them.)
In 2002, Douglas Flynn posted Martha Tabor, born about 1739, as the daughter of William Taber and Hannah White.
Since that time, a number of people have posted this couple to their sites & the names of four of children.
Frank Doherty is writing a series of books about the "Settlers of the Beekman Patent". I have been told that Martha Bull born 6/8, 20, 1743, is listed in Volume II as marrying the same Stephen Washburn, but with a list of younger children. Now this appears to me to be the case of two wives. (Did Martha Taber die or were they divorced?) Based on this very sketchy information, is there anyone out there who came give me death dates for Stephen Washburn, born 1735 in CT, and Martha Tabor (born about 1739) who are believed to have lived in the Town(ship) of Manchester, Bennington County, VT?
Martha (Bull) Washburn was still alive in 1813, & was listed in the will of her son, Stephen Washburn, Jr. (born 1770 in VT), in Leeds County, Ontario, as his "aged mother". Is there anyone out there who has additional pieces for this puzzle? MaryLu in Minnesota
