52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks - Week 64: #71 Hannah (Horton) Dill (1761-ca 1797)

Amy Johnson Crow suggested a weekly blog theme of "52 Ancestors" in her blog post Challenge:  52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks on the No Story Too Small blog.  I am extending this theme in 2015 to 104 Ancestors in 104 Weeks. Here is my ancestor biography for week #64:

Hannah (Horton) Dill (1761- ca 1797) is #71 on my Ahnentafel list, my 4th great-grandmother. She married in 1782 to #70 Thomas Dill (1755-ca 1836).


I am descended through:

*  their daughter #35 Elizabeth Horton Dill (1791-1869), who married 
#34 Alpheus B. Smith (1802-1840)  in 1826.
*  their daughter, #17 Lucretia Townsend Smith (1828-1884), who married #16 Isaac Seaver (1823-1901), in 1852.
*  their son, #8 Frank Walton Seaver (1852-1922), who married #9 Hattie Louise Hildreth (1847-1920) in 1874. 
*  their son, #4 Frederick Walton Seaver (1876-1942), who married Alma Bessie Richmond (1882-1962) in 1900.
* their son, #2 Frederick Walton Seaver (1911-1983), who married #3 Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002) in 1942.

4)  NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):   

 Hannah Horton was the 8th of nine children born to Nathaniel and Eunice (Snow) Horton in Eastham, Barnstable County, Massachusetts.  The birth record in the Eastham, Massachusetts town vital records says:[2]

"hanah horten Daughter of nathel and eunice horten was born in Eastham april the 28 Day 1761."

The marriage record in the Eastham town records says:[3]

"Thomas Dill of Wellfleete and Hannah Horten of Eastham was published 18 May 1782"

The marriage record in the Wellfleet town records says:[1]

"May 18^th 1782   Thomas Dill of Wellfleet and
                               Miss Hannah Horton of Eastham"

Hannah (Horten) Dill had nine children with Thomas Dill between 1784 and 1795, all of which are recorded in the Eastham town records.[4]

Hannah Horton probably died before Thomas Dill married Ruth Linkhornew on 14 June 1797 in Eastham. 

There are no burial records for Hannah (Horton) Dill in Eastham or Wellfleet records.
