Note: It is not proven that Hannah Salmon, daughter of William Salmon and Sarah Horton of Southold, was the wife of John Doud of Guilford. However, this is a very reasonable hypothesis, based on the presence of Hannah's half-sister Sarah in Wethersfield at the time of John Doud's marriage to "Hannah Sellman" by a Wethersfield commissioner, and the absence of any other Sellman/Salmon family in either Guilford or Wethersfield at the time.[1]

This article builds on a previous article by the same author (TAG 71(1996):235-41), in which Harris showed that Hannah's half-sister Sarah was in Wethersfield in 1669 (staying with her uncle Thomas Curtis), where she married first Joseph Edwards (in 1670) and then Samuel Curtis (in 1683). A Miss Jean Rumsey provided him with additional material on the Doud family, and suggested that John Doud's wife Hannah Sellman, whom he apparently married in Wethersfield (although the marriage was only recorded in Guilford) was Sarah's half-sister, Hannah Salmon of Southold. Miss Rumsay pointed out that the name Salmon (or Sellman) was not otherwise present in the Wethersfield or Guilford records (TAG 76:297), supporting the conjectures that Sarah and Hannah were the daughters of William Salmon.

'The last appearance of Hannah(2) Salmon in Southold records was on 11 May 1675, when she acknowledged by mark that she had received from her "father-in-law [stepfather]," John Concklyne, ... items due from the estate of her father, William Salmon.' citing Southold Town Records 1:215-16

Her name in her marriage record "does appear most like sellman with probably a lower case long s at the beginning." (from a communication from Miss Jean Rumsey to the TAG author, Gale Ion Harris.)
Presumably her name has also been read as Tallman.
