For evidence that his Mary's maiden name may be Paul see the link and notes for The New York genealogical and biographical record v.47 (1916) p 332-3 below. This evidence is dubious. It has been proposed that she was the daughter of Daniel Paul and Elizabeth Lever, but read below.

    link This deposition of Thomas Harrison of Redriffe, Surrey, mariner age 50 7 Mar 1636/7 that his son Thomas Harrison is to go master of the "Success" of London set to Prussia and if he can not go his brother-in-law Daniel Paule of Ipswich, shipwright and mariner is to go master. He was probably associate with the Kittery mast trade. The author dicusses Lechford 293 see below.

    Note Stackpole author of old Old Kittery and her families made a big deal about this entry because he supposed that this showed that Daniel Paul of New England was son-in-law of Thomas Hanson of Dover i.e. either Thomas Hanson's wife was Mary Paul or Daniel Paul's wife was Elizabeth Hanson. We now know that Daniel Paul's was Elizabeth Lever. But is Thomas Hanson, quaker, Constable & Highway Surveyor of Dover a land lover the same as Thomas Harrison a master mariner? I just don't get how you could conflate this Harrison with Hanson. This evidence for the maiden name for the wife of Thomas Hanson is beyond weak in my opinion and GDMNH doesn't even bother to mention it. This is the only source for the proposition that Thomas Hanson's wife was Mary Paul and it has been repeated ad nauseam. It is probably time for this theory to be put to rest.
