A daughter named "Hannah Snow" was born in Eastham, Barnstable, Massachusetts Bay, New England, in 1673. Her parents are not identified. [1][2][3]

A woman named "Hannah Snow" married Deacon Thomas Crosby in 1700 in Harwich, Barnstable County, Massachusetts Bay Province, New England. [4] There is no proof that Deacon Crosby's wife was the Hannah Snow born in Eastham but it is alleged by at least one unsourced family tree.[5]

Hannah (Snow) Crosby's gravestone indicates that she died on 8 January 1729 (old style, converted to 1730 above per WikiTree formatting) in Harwich, Barnstable, Massachusetts Bay, New England. Her gravestone states she died in her 57th year, indicating a 1672 or 1673 birth.[6]

Pretty sure that is an error.

What is the source for the marriage to Joseph Crosby, please?

Snow-6668 and Snow-44 do not represent the same person because: Snow-44 was never mentioned in her mother's 1703 Will and there is No record of her having survived childhood. Also, Snow-6668 was from Harwich (now Brewster) and not Eastham where Snow-44 was born. The birth dates also do not match. Profile Snow-6668's birth date has been changed several times indicating that the profile manager is searching for any Hannah Snow to "match" this ancestor. I do not believe it was Snow-44, who most-likely died as an infant/child. Also Snow-6668's gravestone states she died in January 1729 "in the 57th year of her age," indicating a 1671 or 1672 birth - Snow-44 was born in 1679, so she was too young.

I have reviewed all the sources attached to this Hannah Snow and believe all shown to be correct (corrected a few wrong facts). Can't find anything definite on her parents but some (unsourced) histories claim her to be a child of Mark Snow and Jane Prence. Possibly, her last name was Snow when she married Thomas because of an earlier marriage to a Snow?

Snow-125 and Snow-6668 do not represent the same person because: although the birth dates match (one may be an error!), these were different women, both named Hannah Snow. One married Hezekiah Doane in Truro and the other married Mr. Crosby in Harwich (about 45 miles apart) and each was having children by her respective husband at about the same times (not twins, so could not be same woman). See births in March & April 1712, for an example. Research into birth information is needed! But do NOT merge.

Snow-125 and Snow-6668 appear to represent the same person because: The birth date is the same, both in Barnstable, different towns I think. But such a coincidence of birth date, I think the sources should be compared.
