  3. Samuel b. Dedham 5 Feb 1639/40, Ephraim b. Dedham 8 Feb 1645/46, so order of will suggests Mary born about 1642/43. But there is no birth or baptism record found in Dedham for her, suggesting she was born before 1640 when the parents were admitted to the church. The marriage in 1657 suggests she was born by 1639 to be of legal age.
