Hannah LEONARD and Daniel DENTON were married on 24 April 1676 in Springfield, Hampden Co., MA.⁸ Daniel DENTON, son of Daniel DENTON and Abigail STEVENSON, was born about 1654 in Jamaica, Queens Co., NY. He apparently got into trouble for marrying in Springfield without his father's permission.

Did he also marry Deborah Leonard in 1781?

There are enough variations on where Daniel was born and to whom and where he was married to make one want to be very cautious in checking information about him. The family apparently moved back to Jamaica after 1686.
