Joan - We do not know from primary sources the given names of three of the twelve Snow children. We know that there were twelve children living in 1650 because Governor Bradford, writing apparently in that year, tells us so (Of Plymouth Plantation). We have, however, only been able to determine the names of nine. The remaining three could be either sons who died before their father and are therefore not named in his will, or daughters (none of the Snow daughters are called by name in their father's will). The only authority for naming Daniel Doane's 1st wife Constance as a daughter of Nicholas Snow and Constance Hopkins is a notebook on Eastham families kept by Joseph Paine, Town Clerk and historian of Harwich. Paine mentioned individuals from whom he received information, but did not mention the source for this item. See the note on v. 127, pp. 101-102 in "The Godfreys of Chatham, Mass.," by Elizabeth Pearson White, NEHGR, v. 126, pp. 235-239; v. 127, pp. 40-48, 96-102; Correction: v. 127, p. 180. As far as I know the GSMD still does not accept submissions through this line as there is no other evidence for it. Dale H.
