Nancy married three times. Her first husband was John Angell (1755–1787), they married in 1785, and they do not appear to have had children during their brief marriage [2][3]. In 1790, she married Brigadier General Simeon Thayer (1737-1800)[4], who was an American hero during the Revolutionary War; BGen. Thayer had previously married her older sister, Judith Jackson (1738-1771). Nancy's third and file marriage in 1803 was to Darius Daniels (1740–1832)[5], which lasted just seven months and ended when she died in 1803.
Nancy Daniels died in 1803 [6] and is buried at the North Burial Ground in Providence, Providence County, Rhode Island [7], along with her husband BGen. Simeon Thayer.
