      2. The following partial excerpts about the wives and children of Thomas Spencer are from "The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England 1620-1633," Volumes I-III (see notes of Thomas Spencer for full transcript):
      "...Jared, b. say 1650; m. Hartford 22 December 1680 Hannah Pratt, daughter of John [HaVR Barbour 301]..."

      3. "The American Genealogist," Vol. 27 "The Four Spencer Brothers: Their Ancestors and Descendants," compiled by Donald Lines Jacobus, M. A., pp. 167-68:
      "Jared2 Spencer (Thomas1), also called Gerard or Jarrad, born about 1650-1, died at Hartford, in 1712 (will 15 Mar. 1711/12, proved 7 Apr. 1712); married at Hartford, 22 Dec. 1680, Hannah Pratt, born 25 Nov. 1658, died 22 Oct. 1692, daughter of John.
      Children, born at Hartford:
      i. Hannah3, b. 12 Oct. 1681; probably married. (Note: Ann Spencer m. (1) at Hartford, 25 Jan. 1704/5, Thomas Hill, b. 13 Jan. 1681/2, d. 1707 two children; m. (2) at Hartford, 15 Nov. 1710, Edward Foster, and settled in Suffield. She could conceivably have been a younger child of Thomas2 of Suffield (No. 12 above); or the child born to Esther3 in 1683 (No. 12 above); or identical with Hannah3 (No. 14, i). The names Hannah and Ann were sometimes used interchangeably though in other cases they were so little confused that both names were given to daughters in the same family. However, it is to be noted that this Hannah3 was so named in her birth record and in her father's will also, making it less likely that she was ever called Ann.)
      ii. Jared, b. 15 Jan. 1682/3 d. 13 June 1754.
      iii. Nathaniel, b. 2 Feb. 1684/5 d. young.

      vi. Elizabeth (twin), b. (date gone); bp. 12 Feb. 1687/8; d. 21 Jan. 1728/9; m. bef. 1717, John Pease of Enfield.

      viii. Mary, b. 8 Sept. 1692; m. 13 Jan. 1726/7, Joseph Pease."
