Dear Mary Lou,
RE: I am looking for information on the birth of Hannah
Chandler who
married Daniel Bixby Dec 2, 1674 inAndover, Mass. She died Nov,20 1730 in
Andover.
Her parents were Capt Thomas and Hannah Brewer. Who also married in
Andover.
However I can't find her birth and I am not to sure they married in Andover
as I can't find that either. Both her parents died there. and Hannah Brewer
was born there. So I believe they were married there but I haven't found
any proof of it or of her birth.
==
I am slightly confused; Was Chandler Hannah's maiden name (note above: her
parents were Capt Thomas and Hannah Brewer and she married Daniel Bixby.)
One of my ancestors is Joseph Chandler who was born in Andover, MA in 1682
and who had a sister named Hannah, but their parents were William and Mary
(ne:Dane) Chandler; they were married in 1658.
William Chandler, whose birthdate I do not have, had a brother named Thomas
(and a sister named Hannah). Both Hannah and Thomas seem to have been
popular family names in the Chandler family during that period.
I am not sure if I have any information that will help you, but if you could
clear up my confusion about Capt Thomas (Chandler or Brewer) and Hannah
(Brewer/Chandler - birth/married name?), maybe I could add a little
information to help your search.
Sincerely,
Betty
