I have no marriage or death record for her either. She was named in the 1693 agreement drawn up by John Whitney's administrators and signed by mark for her share in 1695.
There are many persons named Hannah Whitney in the Watertown and MA Vital records. They are not easily sorted out unless there are probate or land records that provide a married surname. In this case, that doesn't exist. The Whitney book provided no marriage or death information.
If you want to merge them, I have no problem, but I don't think there is a known death date or known marriage, and recommend that they be deleted from this profile..
I understand your reluctance to merge the two Hannahs, given the differing dates. Do you have a cite for the dates of her birth and death? Thanks, Vic
Randy Seaver is reluctant to merge the two Hannahs, given the differing dates. Do you have a cite for the dates of her birth and death and for the name of her father? Thanks, Vic
Are these really two daughters, or are they the same person with wrong information? Is the death date for Whitney-725 correct? Are the mothers for both correct?
