      The Ancient and Honorable Lineage Book states [dau. of John (2) and wife Martha of Newport, RI] hence Hannah Audley (3), grd.dau. of John (1) Audley & wife Margaret of Boston, Armorer, (Ancient & Honorable Artillery Company Bk. I 1664-1673). The authority for Hannah (2) (Audley) is from Devol-Willits Gen. and Gilman-Noyes Ancestry. The importance of her ancestry is the fact that she was the mother of all the children--5 sons and 6 daughters.

      Born about 1602, based on deposition of 1684, but given the date of birth of his eldest child this may be an exaggeration. An armorer & cutler who came to Massachusetts Bay in 1632 & settled in Boston.
      Died in Boston 18 December 1685 and buried the following day.
      Married by 1635 Margaret _____; last seen on 11 May 1667 when she joined in a deed with her husband, and may have died soon after since she was not a party to a deed nine months later. She may be one of the otherwise unidentified Margarets who joined Boston church during the early years.
