    [Note: the son Thomas who survived is apparently the son of second wife Elizabeth as he, and only he, is named in the will of Elizabeth's father. Presumably the one baptized 1674 died young. Further, Hudson died in 1692, not 1694. 1694 is when a trust he left was distributed to his widow. See the cited notes from the Samuel Sewall Diary.]
