One of the best summaries of this family is per the following Website accessed 25 Dec 2007 <http://kinnexions.com/smlawson/preston.htm> with perhaps at least two corrections: (1) Hannah Gardner's husband was Thomas Bancroft and not Nathaniel Bancroft; (2) Elizabeth's birth date should be at least 1645 or earlier based on her proven marriage date of 1664 -- this would mean the first wife died before that date. Without the corrections, here is the transcript from the website:
"Samuel and Joanna Gardner
No substantive evidence has been found for the parents of Samuel Gardner, and those published claims of his parents that have been reviewed do not survive critical review of claimed dates, places and various relationships. The basic Gardner family information is from Genealogies of Hadley Families, by Lucius M. Boltwood (1905, reprinted Baltimore 1979), and other standard colonial New England sources.
Samuel Gardner - b. 1615; d. Nov. 22, 1696, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA. Samuel was an original proprietor of Hartford in 1640, was reportedly at Wethersfield, CT in 1641, and removed to Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA in 1663. He was said to be about age 81 at death. Married first say about 1640, probably at Hartford, Hartford Co., CT, and second about 1646 to Elizabeth (d. Jun. 21, 1676, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA). Joanna - d. about 1646, possibly at Wethersfield, CT.
Children of Samuel and Joanna Gardner:
Samuel - d. Jan. 12, 1677, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA. Never married. The settlement of his estate in 1677 states that Joanna and Sarah were his only sisters.
John - d. Nov. 26, 1684, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA. Married 1681 to Mehitable Hinsdale. John and Mehitable had no children.
Joanna - d. Mar. 18, 1729, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA. Married Feb. 3, 1680/1 at Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA to Nathaniel Warner (b. about 1655; d. Jan. 15, 1714, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA), son of John Warner and Priscilla Symonds. A weaver, Nathaniel became freeman in 1683. Children of Joanna and Nathaniel Warner: Nathaniel did not marry; John; Daniel; Elizabeth married Samuel Pease; and Israel.
Sarah - b. say about 1646, CT. Married John Preston.
Children of Samuel and Elizabeth Gardner
Hannah - b. about 1647. One source states she was married in 1675 to Nathaniel Bancroft, but this has not been confirmed. [Kerry's note: mix-up with Thomas Bancroft?]
Elizabeth - b. about 1648; d. Nov. 29, 1684, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA. Married Nov. 21, 1664 to John Ingram (b. about 1642; d. Jun. 22, 1722, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA). John became freeman in 1683 at Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA. Children of Elizabeth and John Ingram: John married Mehitable Dickinson; Jadiah; Samuel married Hannah Warner; Ebenezer died young; Nathaniel married Esther Smith; Jonathan did not marry; Elizabeth did not marry; and Abigail.
Abigail - Married on Nov. 12, 1673 to Isaac Morgan (b. 1652; d. 1701). They resided at Springfield, MA and Enfield, CT.
Mary - d. Jun. 6, 1662, probably at Wethersfield, CT.
Martha - b. Jan. 8, 1664, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA; d. Feb. 15, 1664, Hadley, Hampshire Co., MA.
