Hester Crow, daughter of John Crow and his wife (name unknown), was born about 1628 in England. [1]
She married Giles Hamlin in 1655 in Connecticut. Her birthplace listed as 'En'. [2]
Some of their children:
Esther Hamlin Southmayd (1655 - 1682)
John Hamlin (1658 - 1732)
Mehitable Hamlin Hooker (1664 - 1749)
William Hamlin (1668 - 1733)
Hester died 23 Aug 1700 in Middletown, Middlesex Co., Connecticut.
She was buried in Riverside Cem, Middletown, Connecticut [3]
Research Notes
Sources which show Esther as born in Hartford Connecticut are incorrect, because she was born seven years before Hartford was founded.[1] She was nearly certainly born in England, but no evidence has surfaced for the location.

I created/added a profile for the first wife of John Crow, who is known to be the mother of his first child, Esther. I replaced the profile of Elizabeth Goodwin, who was too young to be the mother of Esther, with the profile for the unknown wife.
Robert Charles Anderson puts the marriage of John Crow and Elizabeth Goodwin at about 1640 -- she was too young to be the mother of Esther. The name of John Crow's first wife is unknown.
