Defect 1 [11 April 2014]

On 4:310 Savage abstracts the will of Thomas Tolman, dated 1688, the father of Hannah Tolman, and she is called "Hannah, w. of George Lyon". So Savage's remarks about a second wife appear to be confusion on his part. There is no evidence of a second wife, and although no wife is named in the birth records of the children, neither is there any evidence that Peter's wife Ann, who did died 1689, is other than his only wife. In any event, she is not Hannah Tolman. --Jrich 03:53, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
