    [Note: neither birth or death record found. This source cites "Weld Mss." held by NEHGS. John Weld is named as second son in his father's will dated 1692 so born between brother Joseph 1683 and the date of the will. Baptism 1 Nov 1685 of John, s. of Joseph, is probably a misrecording and would appear to belong to his sister Sarah.]
