Research Notes

"The compiler of the Pratt Genealogy has John Pratt (1661-1744) marry Hannah, daughter of Robert Sandford, Jr., but, considering the dates, this would seem to be an error." (Ware)

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:

Her death date in 1683 wouldn't be correct if she had four children born after that.

Agreed. There appears to be more than one Hannah Sandford. As Cathy mentions in the first comment, a Hannah Pratt is mentioned in the will of Robert, Jr., and this profile is attached as the daughter of Robert, Sr.

Yes, the profile above looks to be mixing information for two different women. Although the image is unavailable, Connecticut birth records show a Hannah SANFORD was born in Saybrook in 1656, and her father was Zackery Sanford: "Connecticut Births and Christenings, 1649-1906", , FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:V2SH-P24 : 7 January 2020), Hannah Sanford, 1656. Perhaps, this Hannah was the one who married Abraham Chalker in Saybrook in 1679 and died in Saybrook in 1683. Also, notice that the last name for this Hannah is spelled without a "d", while according to the Robert Sandford genealogy the last name for the Hannah who married John Pratt is spelled with a "d". In addition, each of Hannah Sandford Pratt's siblings were born in Hartford. Seems unlikely only she would have been born Saybrook. (Hannah Sandford Pratt was one of my wife's 7th great grandmothers.)

Sanford-3231 and Sanford-1237 appear to represent the same person because: same parents and estimated birth

I marked her parents as uncertain.

Even though the birth year is wrong, Hannah (Sanford) Pratt is also listed as the daughter of Robert Jr. Robert Jr's will specifically names his daughter, Hannah Pratt. Robert Sr. is shown with two Hannah's. I don't know which one is correct, but I don't think both are since he only names one Hannah in his will.
