Notes - The will of Richard Carrier, dated 3 Dec 1734, proved 3 July 1750 mentions wife Thankful, sons John, Timothy and Amos, daughters Elizabeth wife of Nathaniel Pinney of Windsor, Mehitabel wife of Benjamin Wentworth, Hannah Carrier, Thankful wife of Ebenezer Phillemore and Remembrance wife of Curtis Cleveland. Since it appears that Richard listed his sons and daughters in the order of their births, Elizabeth was probably born prior to 1699 when Timothy's birth was recorded at Colchester, Connecticut. She may have been born in Andover, MA, as Richard is said to have been the son of Thomas and Martha Carrier of Andover, Martha having been executed as a witch at Salem Village
