About Susannah Harrington
Biography
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/George-85
Charles Hudson, in his History of the town of Lexington, reports that Susanna George was born about 1631 in Wrentham, Suffolk, England and was baptized there on 4 Dec 1631,the daughter of John George and Elizabeth.[1] These same facts are repeated in the genealogical report of D. Pane Joyce. [2]
1648 Marriage to Robert Harrington In 1648 or 1649 in Watertown, Massachusetts Bay Colony, she married Robert Harrington. The marriage date of 10 October 1648 is given by Pane-Joyce, [2] while 1 October 1649 appears in a Sons of the American Revolution membership application. [3] Since their first child was born in August, 1649, the earlier marriage year is supported.
Robert Harrington, a miller, was born about 1616 in England and died on 17 May 1707 in Watertown, MA., with burial at Arlington St. Cemetery, Watertown. [2]
Various parents have been named for Robert Harrington but there’s not yet enough evidence to determine if any of them are correct. Y-DNA testing can be used to narrow down the possibilities. So far, that’s shown that Robert Harrington of Watertown, MA, and Benjamin Harrington of Providence, RI, are not of the same line of Harringtons in England. [4]
Robert Harrington's name is the last on the list of proprietors made out in 1642-44. At that time he owned a homestall, “given him by Thomas Hastings.” This gift renders it probable that he was a kinsman of Deacon Hastings. He was admitted a freeman, May 27, 1663. Robert Harrington took the oath of fidelity, 1652. He was a selectman 15 years, 1679-1700. [5]
Children Susanna and Robert had thirteen children beginning in 1649. [6] [7][8]: Susanna, John, Robert, George, Daniel, Joseph, Benjamin, Mary, Thomas, Samuel, Edward, Sarah, and David.
