Research Notes

McCracken states that Hannah was born 20 Feb 1711/12 and died 11 March 1765. Find a Grave shows that the inscription on her stone has a death date of 13 March 1765 "in the 54th year of her age". The birth date on Find a Grave appears to be unsourced. I have used McCracken's birth date, and the death date on the inscription.
