Note: I disconnected Joseph Smith-963 as her husband. That Smith was apparently in Barnstable, and there is no source for the information. I think that Joseph Smith must have married a different Mary Hawes. Neither were uncommon names in early Massachusetts.
Mary Hawes, daughter of James Hawes and Damaris Bird, was born 25 Sep 1698 in Dorchester, Suffolk [Norfolk] County, Massachusetts.[1] Mary's surname was also recorded as "Haws" in a birth record[2]
In 1708 the family moved a few miles south to the Ponkapoaga Plantation. Here she married 16 May 1717 Joseph Smith,[3] who had also settled in that area of Dorchester.
In 1731 they moved a few miles further south to a farm at Dry Pond [Bay Rd at Plain St.], in that portion of Dorchester which became Stoughton in 1726 and was set off as Sharon MA in 1775.
She died in April of 1760.[4] Joseph died about ten years later.
