↑ The Murdock Genealogy, p. 16, adds a daughter Hannah, b. 22 May 1725, with no further details. This is almost certainly a misreading of the birth of daughter Hannah to Robert's father Robert on 22 May 1705, which is the only record found that resembles this assertion. It is filed under Mordoc, confirming it belongs to the earlier generation, not to this family. Not surprisingly, there is no mention of a daughter Hannah in the son's will.
