Some Ancestral File submitters have Hattie as the daughter of William Nickerson and Anne Busby of Cape Cod, but I think that is wrong.How would hattie have gotten to Saybrook to get married, when the rest of her supposed family remained on Cape Cod?Also, William and Anne were married in 1627, less than 15 years before Hattie was married in Saybrook in 1641/42, so the dates do not work either.
This is my line, so if anyone has the correct lineage, please help.
I note that most presume Hattie to be short for Harriet, but Hattie can also refer to Mehitable, if that helps anyone researching her.I have also seen an online source referring to Hattie as "Hattie or Dorothy Nickerson".
Maybe she was not even a Nickerson, or perhaps that was the name of a prior spouse.
