  4. ↑ The manuscript says 1793-1794 without explanation. Presumably this is because the records say 1794 but that puts Lyman's birth just 6 months before Reuben. Reuben's birth appears correct since it precedes the death of Molly later in 1795. So one can surmise the 1794 is probably wrong, and that the 1793 in the manuscript is probably a guess as to what it should have said. Since the age at death seems to also say 1793, it seems reasonable to assume 1793 is probably correct.
