---------------
Isaac Graves, son of Thomas, the colonist, was married at Hartford about the year 1645 to Mary Church. In 1656 they removed to Hatfield and later to Hadley, where in January 24, 1666, their daughter Hannah, who married William Sacket, was born. [Ref: Proprietors Records, Page 53, Births, Deaths, Marriages of Families 1660-1825.]
It appears that William's father, John Sacket, had made a promise of doubling a gift made by Hannah Graves' mother, Mary (Church) Graves, to the newly wed couple. It also appears that John Sacket failed to fulfill his promise:
