♀Hannah Pratt

Hannah Pratt was the wife of William Spooner (died 1684) of Plymouth and later of Dartmouth, in Plymouth Colony^W. She was the eighth great-grandmother of Frederic Roger Curtis (1928–2007), through her daughter Sarah Spooner (1653–1720).

William Spooner married Hannah Pratt at Plymouth on 18 March 1651/52^W. The Plymouth register records the births of two of their children: Sarah, daughter of William Spooner, on 5 October 1653, and Samuel, son of William Spooner, on 14 January 1655/56. Sarah later married John Sherman (1644–1734) of Dartmouth. Her father’s will of 1684 names her as his daughter Sarah Sherman. Hannah was not William’s first wife: the Plymouth register records the death on 28 April 1648 of Elizabeth Spooner, wife of William Spooner. Hannah’s parents are not known. A Spooner family genealogy supposes that she was a daughter of Joshua and Bathsheba Pratt, but no record names them. No record of her birth or death has been found.
