Profiles Mentioned:

1. Hannah Badger is NOT the Hannah, wife of Ebenezer Person, who died in Wakefield on May 7, 1719, in her 20th y. Hannah Moody did not marry Ebenezer Pearson until Sept. 14, 1721. (The Newbury VR marriage record has him as "Ebenezer Person of Lynn.")
That leaves the question of who are the parents of Hannah, wife of Ebenezer Person, who died in Wakefield on May 7, 1719. From the gravestone inscription, we know she was born after May 7, 1699.
2. From Haverhill VR, we know that a Hannah Badger married Rev. Abiel Foster of Canterbury on May 14, 1761. (Record reads: (Baden) Hannah, Mrs. [Badger. CR1], and Rev. Abial Foster of Canterbury, May 14, 1761.) Is this Hannah Moody, the widow of Joseph Badger, or Hannah, the daughter of Hannah Moody & Joseph Badger born on Nov. 16, 1742.
