Child List Logic

Children Phebe, Constance and John are considered older children--their marriage dates suggest they were all born before 1647 and (b) none of them were baptized at New Haven when John and "Susannah" were baptized.

Phebe married (1) before 24 August 1661 to Joseph Dickinson.

Constance married by 1660, John Morey.

Thomas married "in or soon after" 1672, Mary Osborn. [still looking for eldest son reference]

Child Hannah is probably alias Susannah. Other than the 1647 baptismal record, there is no other record of this child. We know Hannah's birth was about 1640 (age on 13 March 1657/8). Her brother John was also born about 1640 (age about 24 on 24 August 1664). John was baptized at New Haven 5 September 1647. As two children were baptized then (some years after birth), most likely Hannah would have also been baptized at the same time, yet the record calls the child then baptized "Susannah."

Age as 18 on given in Winthrop's medical journal, 1658 = born about 1640.

Hannah married in Boston by Governor Endicott, 25 August 1659 to Thomas Paine, a mariner.
