↑ Hannah's birth is not recorded in either Bridgewater VRs or West Bridgewater VRs. The baptism date of 1784 is inconsistent with the age at death of 2 months. We can only speculate whether the baptism record or the gravestone is incorrect, but it would seem that the next birth being not until 1788 suggests the later date is probably the correct one. (The record of her death is taken from the gravestone, so does not represent an independent record.)
