"(III) Benjamin WRIGHT, son of James was married in 1705 to Elizabeth HAND, of Southampton, L.I., who, it is asserted by some authorities, was the daughter of Joseph and Jane (Wright) HAND, and thus a cousin of her husband. However, it is elsewhere stated, on good authority, that 'she was the daughter of Benjamin and Elizabeth (Whittier) HAND.' The date of her death is given in the Westbrook Church Records as 1767, when she was ninety years of age."
