Based on the will Hannah was not yet 18 in 1669 and Thomas must have died between the date of the will (16 Sep 1669) and the accounting of the estate 16 June 1670. Will proved 1 Mar 1670/1. Someone has added two unnamed daughters to this family, wives of Edmund and Benjamin Howell, but there appears to be no evidence of this.
