More consider the monastic life, but ultimately chose marriage instead in 1505.  He married the oldest daughter, Jane, of a friend of his.  He thought her younger sister to be the fairest, but did not want to cause shame to the oldest sister by causing her "to see her younger sister preferred before her in marriage."<ref name="Encyc">http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14689c.htm</ref>  Yet the marriage was "a supremely happy one," which produced three daughters and a son.<ref name="Encyc"/>  But in six years Jane tragically passed away, and More quickly remarried to obtain a new mother for raising his young children.
