C > Chesebrough > Elisha Chesebrough Sr
According to the birth dates given, Hannah Page would have had to marry at age 15, latest, to be his mother. This was definitely not customary in this time/place/culture. Perhaps Hannah Page married a different Chesebrough, and also had a son named Elisha.
As I said, more research (and sources!) needed.
If more time is needed to research, it can be temporarily placed in Unmerged Match status. But please try to get this done as soon as possible. There are already merges going on in descendants, and parents get disconnected when things can't be resolved to get them merged. All the children and other descendants will be reconnected by the merge, of course.
