Dec. 1774; Bates, Samuel A., Records of the Town of Braintree, 1640 to 1793,

found for Hannah Thayer to calculate from her age at death if this could
possibly be the Hannah Kingman born in 1740, however Nathaniel Thayer of
Bridgewater served in the Revolutionary War in 1780, and at his enlistment he
was described as age 26 yrs., so being much younger than Hannah Kingman, the
widow Hannah Richardson to whom he married in 1777 was possibly a different
person.
