    John Kendall, s/o Francis, m. (1) 1668 Hannah Bartlett (Sewall), (2) 29 Mar 1681 Elizabeth Comy, m. (3) Eunice widow of Samuel Carter.
    [Note by RolandHenryBakerIII: This is not correct. It conflate[s] John2 Kendall (Francis1) with John2 Kimball (Henry1). For correct information on John2 Kendall (Francis1) please see Dawes-Gates 1:375 and Reed-Lilly 598.]
    [Note by jrich: The proof that this is incorrect appears to simply be the marriage record, recorded in Watertown and also in Middlesex county records, and specifying the husband as John "Kemball".
    Dawes-Gates p. 379 says "The first wife of John [Kendall] is frequently erroneously stated to have been Hannah Bartlett", but gives no evidence or explanation, so is not really a useful reference for explaining why this source is incorrect.
    Reed-Lilly doesn't even say who John Kendall married, much less providing any insight into this issue.
    The will of Thomas Bartlett being in 1653 was clearly before Hannah married.
    The source cited by this article, Sewall, is not mentioned by either of other two referenced sources. Since Samuel Sewall's Diary involves Boston and doesn't start until 1674, this reference probably refers to Sewall's History of Woburn, which does say on p. 620 that John Kendall married Hannah, d/o Thomas Bartlett, but gives nothing to support its assertion.
    None of the births of the three children attributed to this marriage by John Kendall provide even the given name of the mother (nor do later births by John Kendall's other wives).
    So the only proof that Hannah Bartlett married John Kendall appears to be the mangling of the Watertown marriage of John Kemball into John Kendall of Woburn by Samuel Sewall, who, apparently working with a very narrow focus, assumed this marriage record was the previously unidentified first wife of John Kendall, instead of taking it at face value.]
