History of Weare, NH by William Little.

cemetery records - Strew, Mary, d. 5 Sep 1869, age: 63y 3m, wife of Peter Hadlock

www.findagrave.com - research of K. Grundham
The daughter of Moses Strew, Sr. and an as yet unknown mother, Mary Strew was likely born in Vermont. Though considerably younger, at age eighteen she and thirty-four year old Peter Hadlock of Weare, New Hampshire announced their intention to marry, a "Publishment" being lawfully filed in Bath, New Hampshire on March 25th, 1816 by the town clerk, who listed them both as residents. Soon thereafter the couple migrated north into the Eastern Townships of Quebec, as did many others along the border states in that era, and made their way to the farmlands of Tingwick Township. There they joined Mary's older sister Sarah Strew Hall (wife of Enoch Hall) and younger brother Joseph Strew (husband of Marguerite Agathe Béland). The Hadlock's seem to have produced a son, born about 1818 and perhaps an only-child, as ascertained from the 1825 and 1831 census enumerations of the family in Tingwick, though what became of him is unknown. Mary lived for the remainder of her life with her husband in the Eastern Townships, later in life moving with him to the adjoining Shipton Township, where she died of complications from dropsy in 1860.
