md. Bridgewater, 19 Feb. 1733-4, Joshua Willis
_____________________________________
*Bridgewater VR: Joshua Willis and Hannah Woodward were married Feb. 19, 1733-4. An original and very old transcript error of the old Record Book of Bridgewater, and perpetuated in the printed VR of Bridgewater to 1850 mis-read the word "were" from "were married" to read "widow", which gives the (perpetuating) notion that Hannah had been previously married.
