  2. This marriage is reported in several places (e.g., Source:Smith, Ethel Farrington. Early Families of Hull, Massachusetts, p. 124; Source:Tower, Charlemagne. Tower Genealogy : An Account of the Descendants of John Tower of Hingham, Mass, p. 72). The probate file (Suffolk 12454) always refers to her as Hannah Jones (of Braintree), and except for a debt to Joseph Tower, has no indication of such a relationship to Joseph Tower. The wording of the oft-cited "S. Niles Rec." often referred in connection with Hannah's burial might be useful.
