Biography
Mehitable Palmer was a daughter of Henry Palmer, who bequeathed to "my son Samuel Dalton & to my daughter Mehetable, his wife" in his will dated July 10, 1680.[1] Her birth year of 1630 is estimated based on marrying in 1650. Her parents were not yet in New England by 1630, so likely her birthplace was England.

Mehitable married only one Zacharia Symmes, not grandfather and grandson on the same day. Obviously its Symmes-74, Symmes-75 han't been born yet.

This profile and Palmer-593 have been set as an unmerged match because they are similar, but different. This one married Rev. Zack a couple years after she died, so we need to do some research to clear this up. I suspect there are two different Mehitable Palmers, or her year of death is incorrect.
