MORSE, Mary, d. of Obadiah and Mercy, [born] Aug. 31, 1747-8.
[Note: this is an invalid date. Source:Leonard, Ermina Newton. Newton Genealogy, p. 570, uses the year 1747, but it seems more likely that writing the year this way was carryover from the 1747/48 section of dates, hence should be 1748. Mary is the youngest child, the previous birth in 1745.]
