Chloe Slocum (1758–1849) was the daughter of John Slocum, a weaver of the Wrentham, Mass., district which became Franklin, and his wife Experience Healy. She later married Benjamin Mann, settled in Mendon, Mass., and had seven children. Her sister Mary “Molly” (c. 1762–1829?) married William Hall, moved to New York State, and had ten children (Charles Elihu Slocum, A Short History of the Slocums, Slocumbs and Slocombs of America [Syracuse, N.Y., 1882], 502, 507, 509).

The later whereabouts of John Brainard has not been discovered. He was perhaps an itinerant member of the large Brainerd family of Connecticut (see David D. Field, The Genealogy of the Brainerd Family in the United States [New York, 1857]).
