Jacob Toppan, son of Abraham Toppan, married Hannah Sewall Aug. 24, 1670. Their children were as follows:

1. Jacob, born May 20, 1671; married Sarah Kent.
2. Samuel, born Sept. 30, 1672; died Aug. 18, 1691.
3. Jane, born Sept. 28, 1674.
4. John, born Jan. 29, 1677; married Judith Moody.
5. Hannah, born March 4, 1679.
6. Elizabeth, born Dec. 20, 1680; married Cutting Voyes.
7. Abraham, born June 29, 1684; married Esther Wigglesworth, daughter of Rev. Michael Wigglesworth.
8. Anne, born May 16, 1686; married Nathaniel Rolfe

John Sewall, brother of Judge Sewall and Hannah Toppan, lived near the Toppan house in Toppan's Lane. He died Aug. 8, 1699. Hannah Toppan died Nov. II, 1699; and Jacob Toppan married, for his second wife, Mrs. Hannah Fessenden Sewall, widow of John Sewall.

The pleasant and friendly relations that existed between the families of Jacob Toppan and Judge Sewall were not interrupted by this event, and the interchange of hospitalities occurred with even more frequency during the next ten or fifteen years. In his diary, Judge Sewall often notes the arrival in Boston of some member of “brother Jacob Toppan's family”; and many of the references in that journal to Newbury contain items of local interest, like the following:

May 12, 1716, Go to Ram Island with Bror Topan and Capt. Greenlef. Dine at Bror Topan's. Visit my Relations.

Jacob Toppan died Dec. 30, 1717, aged seventy-three. His widow died April 4, 1723. The house in which he lived is still standing, and has remained in the possession of his lineal descendants from the day of his death to the present time.
