Notes

First wife of Sgt. William Harlow: “Wiliam Harlow maried vnto Rebekah Bartlet,” 20 Dec 1649 (PCR 8). Her children, all entered in PCR 8, were William (born 5 Oct 1650, died 26 Oct 1650); Samuel, 27 Jan 1652/3; Rebecca, 12 June 1655; and a second William, 2 June 1657. Through her son Samuel the line runs to Phebe Harlow and Nancy Ellis.

Checked against the records

  • Possible
    Mary Warren's daughters Rebecca and Sarah married Harlow and Rider

    Probable. That Rebecca (m. William Harlow 1649) and Sarah (m. Samuel Rider 1656) were daughters of Robert Bartlett and Mary Warren is standard in the Warren genealogies, but no record cited names their parents. If so, the family descends from Mary twice: Phebe Harlow's parents, William Harlow and Mercy Rider, were second cousins.
