    3. NHROCKIN List: Just had to jump in with my 2 cents. According to Noyes/Libby/Davis, the compilers of "Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire," (1939), Jeremiah DID marry a Hannah, BUT she was NOT the Hannah PHILBRICK claimed by Joseph Dow in "History of Hampton" (the daughter of Thomas and Mehitabel [DALTON] PHILBRICK). They say that Joseph got it wrong, and that THAT Hannah died young (on 18 Jan 1696/1697), GDMNH, pg. 546. They do NOT say, however, what Hannah's real surname was. Sanborn and Sanborn, "Vital Records of Hampton, N.H.," vol. 2, pg. 41, confirms that she was indeed, Hannah PHILBRICK. The records do not identify her parents, SO, either GDMNH got it wrong, or else Jeremiah's Hannah may have been the much younger Hannah, born 3/25/1702, the daughter of James and Sarah ( ) PHILBRICK. If so, she would have been only 16 or 17 when she married in Hampton on January 7, 1719/1720. Thoughts, anyone? wprokasy wrote: > > Cousins and Colleagues... > This is to add to the information provided by Tom Prescott re: Hannah > Philbrick's family: > > Jeremiah and Hannah had five children (Elizabeth, William, Mary, Sarah, > and Hannah) all apparently born in Kingston (Dow, p. 929).

Sorry, Bill, I can't help you on this one. Come to think of it, I may not have helped at all. :-) Perhaps someone has already privately solved this mystery. If so, I'd like to get the answers, too. > Thanks for any help. > Bill > -- > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > William F.
