On 5 Jun 1685 when Hannah was 20, she first married Rev. Jeremiah Cushing (10027) , son of Daniel Cushing Esq (15313) (ca 1619-3 Dec 1700) & Lydia Gilman (3375) (say 1623-12 Mar 1688/9), in Hingham, MA.45 Born on 3 Jul 1654 in Hingham, MA.45 Jeremiah was baptized on 9 Jul 1654.25 Jeremiah died in Scituate, MA 22 Mar 1705/6.52 Buried in First Parish Cemetery, Scituate Harbor. Education: Harvard 1676.

Jeremiah preached at Haverhill, then ordained at Scituate 27 May 1691.25

From Deane’s History of Scituate:53
    Jeremiah received his degree at Harvard College in 1676. He was educated for the ministry under the direction of Mr. Norton of Hingham. He was not immediately in the ministry. He received an invitation to become the pastor of Haverhill in 1682, which he declined. He began to preach in Scituate in February 1691, and was ordained there on the 27th of May the same year. His salary was £60. Besides this, the Conihassett partners made him a gift of twenty acres of land. It was laid out in 1694, adjoining the lands of John Curtis and Henry Merritt. He purchased John Curtis's house in 1698, and probably resided in it, and rented the parsonage. It stood between Timothy White's and the harbour.
    We have few materials for composing a life of Mr Cushing, and no data by which we may compare the success of his ministry with that of his predecessors or successors, all the Church records during his time being lost. For the want of another Cotton Mather, obscurity must rest upon many ministers of that period. Mather could swell the lives of ordinary men into very respectable dimensions.
    The term of Mr Cushing's ministry was short, he having deceased March 22, 1705, in the fifty-first year of his age and the fourteenth of his ministry. There is a monument ot his memory in the old burying ground near the harbour. He suffered a lingering illness, having been obliged to suspend his labours for several months.

Jeremiah was also a minister at Provincetown, for several years before 1700, but probably only preached to the transient population in the fishing season.2
