Note

BIRTH: Families of Early Guilford, Connecticut, FHL 974.67 G1 D2t, p. 597, the daughter of Stephen Hand. Because her brother Stephen Hand was known to have been in Woodbury, she may have first cousin to John Hand whose daughter Deborah married John Porter. John became brother-in-law to Daniel's second wife Sarah Porter Church. Apparently they all knew each other because they were all from Woodbury/Bethlehem, CT. FAMILY: She was first cousin to John Hand, father of Deborah and Elizabeth Hand who married Porter brothers in Woodbury. Her brother Stephen Hand was in Woodbury after 1750, and died in Bethlehem in 1791. DEATH: Families of Early Guilford, Connecticut, FHL 974.67 G1 D2t, p. 597.

Note

Barbour Collection of Connecticut Vital Records (Guilford VR 2:56) Since there is not a vital record for the birth of either Daniel or Abigail, there is no proof it was these two who married. However in the book Families of Early Guilford, Connecticut, FHL 974.67 G1 D2t, p. 597 Abigail the daughter of Stephen and Sarah Pierson Hand married Daniel Bradley, obviously the right couple. In the article "Nathaniel Porter of Farmington and Bethlehem, Connecticut, by Bryson C. Cook and Janet S. Porter, pub. NEHGS 2009, the staff at NEHGS provided to following documentation for Daniel Bradley and this marriage: Talcott, Families of Early Guilford [note 11], 117-18, 121; Ralph D. Smyth, “The Bradleys of New Haven and Guilford (Conn.),” Register 57 (1903):134-41 at 136-37, 141; Smyth, “Joseph Hand of East Guilford” [note 12], Register 55:32.
