Esther Prichard or Pritchard married 1677 John Hanchett; her parents were?

Esther Prichard or Pritchard was born about 1656 in CT and she married John Hanchett at Westfield, MA on 06 Sep 1677 and they had 9 children.

I have had her parents listed as immigrants Nathaniel Prichard or Pritchard and Hannah Langton, but I haven't found that in a reliable source as yet. Can someone help me with this? Did Nathaniel and Hannah have just the one child?

Perhaps Esther's parents are not Nathaniel and Hannah?

Nathaniel's parents were immigrants Roger Prichard or Pritchard and his first wife Frances. That seems clear. And Roger married a second time to Elizabeth Prudden (widow of William Slough) in 1653 and had Josephine and Joseph and Benjamin and maybe Roger - who would have been the same general age as his son Nathaniel's children. I have seen Roger's children by this second wife attributed to Nathaniel. After Roger's deathe, his second wife's sister Ann Prudden and her husband Samuel Colby cared for these minor children. The child Joseph died with William Prichard or Pritchard and his son Samuel during King Philips War. Perhaps William was related (brother?) to Roger.

Any help sorting this out will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Janice
