North American Family Histories shows that Thomas Austin died from drowning on March 22, 1722, not 1712. She had 7 seven at the time of his death. It says Hannah Foster Austin married again in October, 1722 to Jotham Hendrick. That would make sense that she would soon marry after Thomas' death to help care for her many children
