     McCracken notes that she was said to have been probably aged 87 at death. This age at death is possibly several years too high, as it would put the birthplace in England, yet her putative parents brought with them in 1632 no daughter Hannah and the daughter Anna, whom they did bring, is recorded, probably, as dying at Roxbury in 1659. If we have identified her correctly, she would have been an unrecorded daughter born in Massachusetts. This solution is not wholly satisfactory but is superior to the alternatives rejected after close examination. Hannah Brewer died on 25 October 1717 at Andover, MA.
