    There does not seem to be a primary source to support this information. This birth does not show up in Boston, Fairfield or Stratford VRs. Stratfield Church records (as transcribed and available on the Internet) start in 1696-97. Records of Christ's Church, Fairfield (as transcribed and available on the Internet) start in 1694.

    Assuming the records are presented in chronological order, which they appear to be, this would be 1703.
