Nov. 10, 1653, at Middletown, Ct. … According to Goodwin, John Webster died Dec. 6, 1695, but according to the Hartford First Church record he died Dec. 8, 1694, aged 41, which is evidently the true date as proved by the year of his birth, and also by the fact that his widow was appointed administrator of his estate, March 7. 1695. …"
