Henry Hazard, born c1779-1787 So. Kingstown, RI, or CT; Henry died at Newport, death recorded at New Bedford, 28 Mar 1868. From census records, it apears he is probably father of Harriet Hazard who married Freeman Shearman, Emeline Hazard who married John Rounds, and James Hazard -- all three of whom were married at Dartmouth around the time Maria was married there. Henry was a seaman. In his later years, census records show he was living in New Bedford with John & Emeline, and in one census, with them was Charles Sherman, son of Harriet and Freeman (who went west as a miner). James Hazard is next to or with them, also.
