John Humphreys married Hannah Mayo, age 26 , daughter of Major Joseph Mayo and Esther Kenrick, on 25 September 1794 at Warwick, Massachusetts.1 In her book, Home Anna Leland says of John, "John Humphrey, her husband, was somewhat imperious in manner, and occasionally peevish and fretful; he was several years the senior of my aunt, for she was yet in the bloom of youth and valued himself not a little upon his descent from a family of some distinction."
