Additional Information about Sherwood Leavitt
Jane Pawling and Sherwood Leavitt were married on 20 Feb 1828. They had no children.
This date of marriage for Jane and Sherwood is prior to the date found for Hannah's death. It is most probable that one or both dates is incorrect, because there is nothing to indicate that Jane and Sherwood were married before Hannah died.
