Notes - Susannah's name as wife of Thomas is found in Scituate land evidence (see notes for Thomas). Her gravestone is pictured at findagrave.com and gives her name as Susie.
I have estimated her birth year based on the birth years of her siblings. There is a photo of her gravestone at findagrave.com but I can't see if it has her age on it.
In the book "The Story of Hartford: A History" by Mrs. Isabella Brayton (1929) the following information is given: Thomas Hill married Susan Cook, daughter of the famous navigator.
The following Cook family births are recorded in Scituate: a son Joshua to Peter & Elizabeth Cook, 7 June 1744; and a son Charles to Peter & Mercy Cook, 24 Sep 1747. Susannah could be a daughter of one of these couples. According to findagrave.com she is d/o Peter Cooke and Mercy Wanton. I have made an assumption that this information is correct, based on my own additional, although inconclusive, research.
The surname is spelled as both Cook and Cooke in the records.
