Hannah Hobart m. (1) John Browne of Salem, son of Elder John Browne of that town. Source:Essex Antiquarian (Essex Antiquarian), p. 13:147, has confused this John Browne with a separate John Browne who married Hannah Collins. Peter Hobart's will of 16 Jan 1678, mentions "my daughter Hannah Browne of Salem widdow late the wife of John Browne deceased", but on 7 Dec 1680 Francis Collins of Salem conveyed land to his son-in-law John Browne and his daughter Hannah, the wife of said John Browne, so the husband of Hannah Collins could not have been the John Browne who was deceased in 1678.
