Hannah, daughter of Joseph Dow and Mary Sanborn, was born on 25 August 1672 in Hampton, New Hampshire.[1]
In 1692, Hannah married William Fowler at Amesbury/Salisbury, Massachusetts.[2] Torrey in New England Marriages Prior to 1700 gave the marriage year as 1692, but based on the birth of their first child on 4 April 1692 the marriage more likely took place in 1691.[3]
There is no source for Hannah's death, but Hannah is not mentioned in William's will dated October 1735.[4] William's will indicated he was from Amesbury so the location of her death is likely Amesbury.
