Biography

Susannah & Mary are twins.... It's possible that Mary didn't survive, I can't find any other reference to her.

Susannah was born on April 23, 1756 in Plymouth, Massachusetts Bay Colony. She was a daughter of William Churchill and Susannah (Clarke) Churchill. One source indicates she was a twin to Mary.^[1]

Susanna, daughter of William Churchell & Susannah, was born on 23 April 1756 in Plymouth, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States.^[2]

Susannah died on 31 May 1774 and was buried.^[3]

Susannah married Simeon Harlow on 30 March 1775 in Plymouth, Plymouth, Massachusetts Bay Colony.^[4]

Susanna married Simeon Harlow on 30 March 1775 in Plymouth, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States.^[5]

This person was in a record.^[6]

In 1760, Nathaniel Morton was appointed her guardian after her father had died.^[7]

She married Simeon Harlow in Plymouth. There are two possible dates for their marriage based on different records. The first says they were married on December 31, 1774. The second says they were married on March 30, 1775.^[8][9]

Research Notes

• An entry on Find-A-Grave lists Susannah's death date as May 31, 1774 which would be impossible given that she was recorded married no later than December 31 of that year.
