Note on Husband: Mark Trecothick
Capt Mark Trecothick, mariner, was one of those peripatetic sailors of the earley 18th century. Nothing is known of his origins,but by the end of the 1710s he seems have been operating out of Stepney, Middlesex, like many other sailors. He was already married to Hannah. But his marriage has not been located.
It looks as if Mark Trecothick mainly worked on the major commercial shipping route of the North Atlantic of that time, between London and Boston, and that sometime between the end of 1721 and December 1724 the family moved to Boston. They appear to be Anglicans, as they frequented the Kings Chapel in Boston. Mark died in 1733/34, because on March 22, 1734, a will administration for him was granted to his widow,and a will inventory was made describing him as Capt Trecothick deceased. His widow Hannah coninued to live in Boston, dying there on Sept 20, 1766 aged 83.
