The ancestry of Hannah Read Tyler (1809-1886), wife of Capt. Nathan Low of Deer Isle and mother of Harriet Phillips Low. Her father's side runs back through the Attleborough and Mendon Tylers to Job Tyler of Andover, the man who accused John Godfrey of witchcraft, with the Capron family; her grandmother Hannah Read's people, the Reads, Pecks and Ides of Rehoboth, are the Read and Peck line, and Hannah Read's mother Mary White's, the Whites and Deans of Taunton and Norton, are the White and Dean line. Her mother Sally Ginn's side, if Sally was Capt. James Ginn's daughter, runs to the Genns of the Choptank River in Maryland; Capt. James's wife Ann Riggs came of the Riggses and Stanwoods of Gloucester, with the Milletts, Wheelers and Allens, who are the Riggs and Stanwood line.

Mollie Pfeiffer's typescript (pp. 133-187) first named nearly all of these families. Its dates mostly match the records, but several of its links named the wrong person, and its gentry descents, the Caprons' Callender wife from the Callendars of that Ilk among them, are not supported.

The line at a glance

Tyler: Job Tyler (c. 1619-aft. 1700) = Mary > Samuel (1655-1695) = Hannah > Capt. Samuel (1694/5-1759) = Mary Capron > Col. Ebenezer (1740-1811) = Hannah Read > Rowland (1780-1872) = Sally Ginn > Hannah Read Tyler (1809-1886)

Ginn: Thomas Genn (1718-1767/8) = Sicely > Capt. James Ginn (1745-1818) = Ann Riggs > Sally Ginn (1784-1834) [unresolved]

The scope walks every ancestor of Hannah Read Tyler. It stops at her grandmothers Hannah Read, who heads the Read and Peck line, and Ann Riggs, who heads the Riggs and Stanwood line.

The weakest links

  • Sally Ginn > Capt. James Ginn and Ann Riggs (possible): Mollie's chart and a WikiTree entry against Brigham's Tyler Genealogy, which calls Sally the daughter of "William H. Ginn, a shipbuilder of Ellsworth." No such man has been found, and Buck's count of James's "six sons and six daughters" needs Sally, but no record settles it. The whole Ginn side of the tree hangs on this link.
  • James Ginn > Thomas Genn of Maryland (probable): two NEHGR notes and the Genn family study agree, but no primary record ties the Gloucester and Maine captain to the Choptank family.
  • Mary Capron's mother is unknown: the Callender tradition, "Elizabeth Callender" and Holden's Elizabeth Blackington have not been sorted out.

Open questions

  • Who was Sally Ginn's father? The Bucksport intention of 25 Feb 1804, the Orrington births, or a Ginn probate.
  • The printed Attleborough births and marriages: Ebenezer Tyler's birth (March or May
    1. and the Tyler-Capron and Tyler-Read marriage dates.
  • Hannah's own records: the 1832 Deer Isle marriage and her 1886 death record.
  • Bristol County probate: Ebenezer Tyler (1811), Hannah (Read) Tyler (1822, the silver spoon), Banfield Capron (13:258-261).
  • Did Capt. James Ginn hold enslaved people at Bucksport, as Mollie says? No record has been found: check the Hancock County deeds and probate and the 1800 and 1810 censuses.
  • Job Tyler's origin.
