Hannah/2w Brooks was born in England, and emigrated to New England with her family. 3 She married (1), 13 Dec 1647 at Concord, Massachusetts , as his 2d wife, Thomas/1 Fox of Concord, with whom she had 6 children. 4 , 5 His will of 25 Jan 1657/58 named her executrix. 6 He died at Concord 14 April following, and she subsequently removed to New London 7 , where she married (2), as his 3d wife, 1661, Andrew/1 Lester , with whom she had 3 sons. 8 , 9 He died at N.L. 7 Jun 1669. 8 She married (3), as his 2d wife, Isaac/1 Willey of N.L., who died in 1685. Caulkins dates this marriage after 1670, Cutter after 1679. 10 , 11 However, her father's will, 18 Jul 1682, names her as daughter Lestor, to whom he gives 5s. and no more "because shee hath reseived her portion alredy as will appear by a reseipt given in her hand." 12 , 2 Caulkins also mentions, without a date, the baptism of "Widow Lester from the church at Concord," by Rev. Simon Bradstreet Jr., who was New London's minister from 1670-1683. 13 "Widow Anna Willey, sometime wife to Andrew Lester, Sen., deceased," died in 1692. 14 According to Savage, she died without children before her father Thomas (1667). Shattuck says she was the 2d wife of Thomas Fox, with issue through one son, Eliphalet, and descendants in New Hampshire. Both are incorrect. Eliphalet was Thomas Fox's son by his 1st wife Rebecca. 15 , 16
