Marriage
Per a marriage record of his son, Hezekiah was married to Rhoda.[1] This name is also on his tombstone. [2]
The death record of their daughter Sarah names her Rhoda Mann.
Rhoda's death record claims she was daughter of Ralph and Rhoda Brown. She died in Milford on 3 June 1849 at the age of 74. [b 1775].[3]
