"BETHIAH THACHER-3 (Anthony-2, Rev. Peter-1), born at Yarmouth, Mass., probably, although we have no record thereof; date of birth ---. She is always given in list of her father's children as the youngest child and hence was probably born in Yarmouth some time in the 1640's. She resided at Yarmouth with her parents until her marriage, which took place presumably in Yarmouth some time about 1667 or 1668, as her 1st child was born November 15th 1669, but we have no record of place or exact date of marriage. She died in Bristol, R. I., December 19th, 1725, and was presumed buried there although no stone marks her grave. She married Jabez HOWLAND (son of John HOWLAND and Elizabeth (TILLEY) HOWLAND of Plymouth, Mass.)... "
