Hannah Griffing's maiden name is not known. The inscription on her tombstone reads; "HERE LIETH THE BODY OF HANNAH GRIFFING WIFE OF JASPER GRIFFING BORN AT MANCHESTER IN NEW ENGLAND AGED 46 YEARES AND 2 DAYES AND WAS MOTHER OF 14 CHILDREN AND DEPARTED THIS LIFE IN SOUTHOULD THE 20 DAY OF APRIL 1699."

Clara J. Stone ("Griffing Genealogy," 1881) reports finding "accounts of only four sons, Jasper, John, Edward, Robert, and a daughter, Susanna." Many are presumed to have died in infancy.

Henry Griffing ("Stephen Griffing, His Ancestry and Descendants," 1911) reports that "Jasper and Hannah Griffing died in Southold and their graves are in the old cemetery at that place. The head stones are in good condition. The one at the grave of Jasper is of slate and somewhat ornate, with a cherub's head, carved after the mortuary fashion of the period. His wife's stone, of an earlier date, is a larger slab of sandstone, with no ornamentation. It is the oldest stone in Southold cemetery a t the grave of a woman." -- page 8
