SAMUEL ANDREW ... married, December 9, 1719, Eunice, only daughter of the Hon. John Hall, of Wallingford, Connecticut, by whom he had one son and three daughters. ...
In 1730, his widow married Governor Jonathan Law (Harv. 1695) as his fourth wife, his third wife having been Abigail Andrew, the elder sister of the subject of this sketch. Governor Law died November 6, 1750, and his widow then married Colonel Joseph Pitkin, of East Hartford, Connecticut, who died November 3, 1762. Her two sons by her second marriage graduated at this College, in 1751 and 1753, and her only daughter by the same marriage married the Rev. Seth Pomeroy (Y. C. 1753).
Her gravestone, in New Haven, bears the following record:
“She was a Lady of an excellent character for Prudence, Industry and CEconomy, for Virtue and Piety, for Kindness, Benevolence, and Sociability, and for a certain Nobleness of Spirit and Dignity of manners. She lived an Honor and ornament to the families with which she was connected, and died in this city, June 3” [it should read June 2] “1774, AEtat. 75.”
