  3.   Both Harrington and Weis are short on concrete details, and neither seems to offer a marriage date. In fact, there is not enough information to find any kind of matching record. There appears to be no probate file for the father, which usually is the reason why a married name is known without knowing the husband's given name. See the discussions on "sisters" Person:Molly Harrington (2) and Person:Azubah Harrington (1). Such a consistent pattern of sloppy research makes it likely the reason no records are found is because a daughter of Jason named Nancy is fictitious, as well. The pattern of births in the family seems very typical if these three are eliminated...
