Children: John Heath, Joseph Heath, Joshua Heath, Hannah Heath, Josiah Heath, Elizabeth Heath, Benjamin Heath, and Elizabeth Heath.
Hannah Moyce's family lived just across the Merrimack River in Salisbury. She and Bartholomew married sometime around 1640-42 both in their mid-twenties.
Her parents were Joseph and Hannah (possibly Folcord) of Salisbury. She had been born in England and records show her father received land in the 1st division of Salisbury and again in 1640 and 1641.
The wedding they had would have been a simple and solemn affair - there would have been no festivity as there would be today. The Puritans didn't believe marriage was a religious rite, but rather a contract. They would be married by a magistrate after the parents discussed a dowry and the couple had an engagement period.
