Joan (q.v. Jane) Delano, dau. of Jonathon Delano and Amy Hatch, b. of record Dec. 16, 1706 at Dartmouth, Mass. She d. May 18, 1798 at Tolland, Conn., Æ 92.
Her birth in the transcription of the Dartmouth records initially calls her Jane, with a later duplicate entry calling her Joan. This is likely due to alphabetizing the two given names versus accurately reflecting which one was really applicable. Then at her marriage in the vital records of Tolland, Conn., she is called Joan with the birth of her two eldest children recorded as the children of "Joseph and Jone." The remaining children are called simply the children of their father. However, her gravestone gives her first name as Jane.
On May 19, 1725 at Tolland, Conn., Joan m. Dea. Joseph West, s. of Francis West and Mercy Minor, b. of record Oct. 1 (bapt. Nov. 30), 1701 at Stonington, Conn. He d. Jan. 27, 1764 at Tolland, Conn., Æ 63. They had eight children b. of record at Tolland, Conn. who are outlined in their father's memorial.
