Marriages presumed to be existing by inferences from wills, other porbate records and land records, prior to 1777. Referenced dates are from specified documents, not of the marriage and have never been verified. Use as clues but with caution. Some suppositions may be confirmed.
This is the item on which I base the designation of her husband. (in additon to the fact that her son Joseph named a daughter "Jane Tant Thompson", her daughter, Elizabeth, named a daughter "Jane"..)
