Biography
Mary was born about 1693.
Mary was baptized 23 Nov 1696 at Stonington 1st Church, along with her sister Sarah,[1] who was born 8 April 1695. So, a belated baptism. Nothing indicates they were twins. Since the rite occurred only 19 months after Sarah's birth, and the normal interval between children is 2 years, it is likely that Mary was born before Sarah, say 1693.
Apparently married Solomon Hill of Sherborn, MA, about 1714, although no primary source for the wedding yet found. [2][3]
