Too Many Hannahs!! Here is what I have. (1) Their marriage was earlier than that and they moved away. First, to New Hampshire and then Maine. The first child I know of was Thomas, born in 1789 in the other Salisbury – the one in Merrimack, New Hampshire (2) I don't have a Hannah Colby married to Daniel Tewksbury. Miriam & Dolly Tewkesbury's mother was Hannah Hoyt, daughter of Theodore Hoyt & Hannah Colby, born 30 October 1748. Daniel Tewksbury was the son of John Tewksbury & Sarah Colby, born 19 October 1753. Miriam & Dolly had a sister, Molly born 16 April 1795. I kinda think that Hannah would have been rather old (47) to have had another baby – but that is what they did, back then. The gap in ages probably shows babies that did not make it. (3) I don't have any indication of Hannah Colby, daughter of Ezekiel Colby & Mary Tewkesbury marrying anyone. So anything is possible! Also, not too far outside those dates: Hannah Colby, daughter of Abraham Colby & Elizabeth Blaisdell – born 3 Oct 1753. She married Reuben Hoyt. They moved to New Hampshire and had 8 kids. Hannah Colby, daughter of Thomas Colby & Hannah Sargent – born 2 April 1752. She married Hezekiah Nichols 3 Jan 1775 and had 7 kids. At least they stayed in Amesbury!! Hannah Colby, daughter of Moses Colby & Sarah Sargent – born 16 Oct 1758 married Ebenezer Woodbury. But they went to New Hampshire And, in Newbury - Hannah Colby daughter of Richard Colby & Hannah Davis, born 24 May 1752.
