Wife of Capt. Daniel Read of Attleborough. Mollie Pfeiffer wrote that she "lived for some reason, in Attleboro." Her widowed mother married Benjamin Tree of Attleborough in 1731, which probably explains it (inference). Her brothers and sister (Norton VR p. 157): Seth, 26 June 1716; Benjamin, 1722; Dameras, 1724/5. Through her mother's second marriage she had a half-sister, Mary Tree, born 22 Sept 1732 (Lothrop).
Lothrop lists eleven children born to her between 1742 and 1764, the last, William, on 27 Dec 1764. She died on 23 Sept 1775, within eleven days of her sons David (12 Sept), aged twenty-six, and Ezra (21 Sept), aged fifteen. Three of her daughter Hannah's sons died in the following week (Attleborough VR deaths).
