His first known marriage was to Sarah (Wright) Hand, daughter of Joseph Wright of Wethersfield, Connecticut,[3][4] marrying in Guilford, Connecticut on November 6, 1700 and having three known children together. After the death of his firs wife six years later, Stephen married Sarah (Pierson) Hand, the daughter of Abraham Pierson and Abigail Clark, marrying in Guilford on November 16, 1878[5] and having two known children together. Stephen Hand may have had a third wife, named "Dorothy."[citation needed] He remarried in 1743, marrying Hannah Diggins, the daughter of Jeremiah Diggins and Mary Cadwell and the widow of Jonathan Judd. They married in Guilford on September 21, 1743.[6]

Research Notes

He is believed to have remarried after the death of his wife in 1706 (possibly to Sarah Pierson) but no marriage records were found on FamilySearch nor on Ancestry.
