Jacobus in The American Genealogist, Vol 27 (1951) p 170 says that Hannah (daughter of Timothy Spencer and wife Sarah Clark) was born c. 1681 and died c. 1705 as a wife of Azariah Dickinson, but no children. Azariah then married Mary NN by 1706.

But it conflicts with this in Judd, Sylvester, and Lucius M. Boltwood. History of Hadley (Massachusetts): including the early history of Hatfield, South Hadley, Amherst and Granby, Massachusetts. (Springfield, MA: H.R. Huntting & Co., 1905) 430.
Children of Joseph Dickinson and Phebe Bracy: Azariah, b. 15 May 1674, m. (1) Mary ---, m. (2) Elizabeth ---, about 1704 moved to Haddam, CT.
