Based on my cousin's research Hannah Fitch was Robert Stedman's first wife. I think that he remarried her sister Lydia. You can see the break after the first three children. He had our family connected to Hannah. Unfortunately, he has passed and his wife, in her 90s is blind. I have been very sick this winter and have not been able to get to his wife's home to see if I can find evidence of this. Details were very important to him, so I trust his resesarch. If I can find proof I will be happy to provide it.
