In the Mayflower Families Through Five Generations published by the General Society of Mayflower Descendants, 1995, there are several Hannah Fullers.
The one you are interested in is also my ancestor. Here is what is in the book:
Hannah Fuller (Samuel, Edward) b. Scituate ca 1636; d. Piscataway NJ after 23 Aug 1686 when she posted bond as executrix of the will of her husband with Edward Slater as fellow bondsman.
She m. Barnstable 1 Jan. 1658/9 Nicholas Bonham, b. England ca. 1630; d. Piscataway 20 July 1684.
They had relocated to Piscataway NJ by 6 May 1667. Nicholas signed the Oath of Allegiance in 1672 and served as a sergeant in 1681.
The will of Nicholas Bonham of Piscataway was drawn 6 Feb. 1683, proved 4 Jan. 1684/5, but witneses testified on 18 Dec. 1694. His wife Hannah and son Hezekiah were named executors; mentions was made of other children (not named); witnesses included Edward Slater and Isaac Smalley who were also overseers and took the estate inventory on 28 July 1684.
Children (Bonham) first 3 b. Barnstable, others Piscataway NJ
Hannah b. 8 Oct. 1659
Mary b. 4 Oct. 1661
Sarah b. 16 Feb. 1664/5
Elizabeth b. ca. 1666
Hezekiah b. 6 May 1667
Samuel b. 7 Sept. 1672, d. 1 Oct. 1682
Jane b. 29 Jan. 1675/6; d. 25 Feb. 1675/6
Priscilla b. 11 Nov. 1677
If you can prove your heritage to Hannah, then you are eligible to join the Mayflower Society as her father and grandfather and unnamed grandmother (sometimes referred to as Ann) were all on the Mayflower.
Please let me know if you need any other information out of this book. I shall be happy to supply it.
Blessings,
Rev. Nina Russell
