Biography

Hannah was a Friend (Quaker)

The above Hannah Mosher Allen was not the daughter of William and Hannah Mosher, who was born 21d 10m 1762 [21 Oct 1762].^[1] She died 10d 2d 1834 [10 Feb 1834], aged about 71 years.^[1] She was interred at Newtown.^[1]

According to the Dartmouth monthly meeting register of Births, Marriages and Deaths, Hannah was unmarried (last name Mosher).^[1] The spouse listed in this profile is unlikely. It's probable that Adam Allen Jr. married a different contemporary Hannah Mosher. A likely local candidate for Adam's spouse is Hannah Mosher, daughter of John and Virtue Mosher. She was born 20 Feb 1769 in Westport, Bristol, Massachusetts Bay.^{[citation needed]} My Hannah Allen could not be the daughter of John and Virtue Allen either as she would be only 10 years old at the time (1779) that she married Adam Allen.
