    • Notes: 
    • William Hartwell may have been the son of Francis and Mary Hartwell who was baptized at Cranfield, Bedfordshire, England, 21 DEC 1613. Evidence is still needed to confirm this.

      Claims that William Hartwell had two wives, Susan and Jezan, have been proven false. The identification of a wife Susan appears to have been from a transcription error by a clerk transcribing the birth record of son Samuel.
