Hannah married Samuel Walter.

Samuel, of New London, CT.
18248. Ruth Woodworth. Born in 1695 in Little Compton, RI.

Ruth was Joseph Owen’s second wife. It’s not clear which of the eleven children of Joseph’s were children of his first wife, Mary, and which were children of Ruth as some have no birth records. The Owen genealogy560 assigns five of them to Ruth: Jonathan, Ruth, Mercy, Irene, and Lydia. Jonathan’s birth was recorded at Lebanon,250 and he was named as the son of Joseph and Ruth. The others appear to be younger.

(Behan352 quotes G. Alan Royce’s analysis of the claim that this Ruth Woodworth married Caleb Fitch. A Ruth Woodworth married Caleb Fitch at 4 Apr 1747 at Bozrah, CT. That’s probably Ruth, daughter of Joshua Woodworth, b. 27 Apr 1730 at Nowrich, or possibley Ruth, daughter of Joseph Woodworth, b. 23 Jan 1728 at Little Compton, and the Caleb Fitch is probably the one born in 1725.)
Ruth married Joseph Owen, son of Joseph Owen (23 Oct 1660-) & Esther Osborn (9 Aug 1662-). Born on 29 Jan 1685 in Simsbury, CT.560 Joseph died in Salisbury, CT, on 9 Sep 1758; he was 73.560 Buried in Town Hill Cemetery Lakeville, Salisbury.

Joseph’s first wife was named Mary; he married second Ruth Woodworth.

    While in Lebanon Thomas became a merchant with large interests; they removed to Salisbury, where he was one of the original proprietors in 1739. In the Fall of 1746, he removed to “Crum Elbow Pricinct” or “Little Nine Partners,” N.Y., a large tract of land granted by the Government. He lived in the town of Pleasant Valley, N.Y., and died 1761 age 70; buried in the Washington Hollow church yard where his gravestone reads “T N 1761.” There is no mention of Judith’s death but it is probable that she died at Pleasant Valley also.
