This Hannah, wife of Samuel King 1675-1725, was not a Havens. Please read Lucy Akerly, "William and Dorothy King of Salem, Mass, and Three Generations of Their Long Island Descendants," "New York Genealogical and Biographical Record," (1902) page 145 that notes the mistake in one genealogy it names that confuses this Samuel King with another different Samuel King who married a Hannah Havens.

"Her maiden name is not known and the 'Pedigree of King of Salem' confuses her with a certain Hannah Havens who married another Samuel King, 19 Feb., 1761, (Salmon Record); this may have been that Samuel King mentioned in Henry H. Terry's
note-book as having d. 1 March, 1803, aged 72 years and about 2 mos."
