I'm a bit confused when it comes to William Harvey. Was there more than one? Was William Harvey of Boston the same William Harvey of Taunton, MA?

I am a descendant of a William Harvey, most likely of Boston who had a daughter named Experience. Experience was born in 1644 in Boston and married Jonathan Briggs of Weymouth and Taunton in 1666. Her mother may have been Joan Hucker but I'm not sure of this. Her mother may have been Martha Copp instead (?). Experience may have had siblings Abigail, Thomas and Joseph.

Can anyone sort this out for me? I have read that there were two William Harvey's but they may have also been the same person. Which William was married to which woman? Were they both wives of one William? I'm new to researching the Harvey line so I am very unsure of what I'm reading.

Thanks.
