'Hayward, Hannath (sic), d. George and Mary, 20: 2m: 1647" [2m = April] (April 20, 1647)
The following is from Forbes and Forbush genealogy
Jacob Farrar was born in England, probably about 1642, and went to Lancaster, Mass., where he resided with his mother and younger brothers and sisters; about 1658, he married Hannah, daughter of George Hayward of Concord, in 1668[2], and was killed by the Indians in King Phillip’s War, Aug. 22, 1675.
Hannah Farrar, his widow, took administration on his estate Oct. 3, 1676, and at the same time returned an inventory dated 1675-7-27. Their children were:
Jacob, b. April 29, 1669; m. Susanna Rediate;
George, b. Aug. 16, 1670, m. Mary Howe;
John, b. 1672, m. Elizabeth Merrion;
Henry, b. 1674 was living Oct. 6, 1697.
Soon after his death, the widow, with her children went to Concord, where her relatives lived, and where the children were brought up, and settled.
March 5, 1681, she married Adam Holloway, of Marlboro[3]. Their children - all named in the father's will[4] - were:
Mary (Holloway) (Oakes) Rice 1681–1733;
Hannah (Holloway) Forbush 1684–1768;
Elizabeth (Holloway) Wheeler 1687–1748;
William Holloway 1689–1760;
Adam's will in 1733 names his wife, so Hannah's death occurred after that date.
Note
Deacon Jonathan Forbush seems to be the husband of Hanna Holloway, daughter of Hanna Hayward and Adam Holloway (and not his widow as reported in the text "Biographic Review" quoted here - see opposite - which also reports 9 children, born from 1706 onwards, when Hannah Hayward would have been around 60)

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hannah by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Hannah:
These two certainly represent the same person. The correct last name at birth needs to be determined. Then the direction of the merge can be set to go INTO that correct last name at birth (regardless the number).
Also changing her date of death (from: about Mar 1732) as she survived Adam Holloway, being named in his will 27 March 1733 (pro. 15 August 1733).
She was not married to Timothy Holloway who was Adam Holloway's father
These two certainly represent the same person. The correct last name at birth needs to be determined. Then the direction of the merge can be set to go INTO that correct last name at birth (regardless the number).
Thanks!
