Note 2 tells us that Hannah was really Hannah Maynard, not Manners or Warren.

"MANNERS. -- In the REGISTER, ante. page 293, inquiry is made concerning Hannah Manners, the wife of Jonathan Davenport.
When in the REGISTER, vol. 33, page 27, I gave Manners as my reading of the original Dorchester record, I did not know that it was but the colonial corruption of Maynard, and that the said Hannah was daughter of John and Mary (Gates) Maynard of Marlborough, Mass., as I have since learned."

Now we know Hannah's maiden name.
