'ICHABOD FRANKLIN ... m.(1) 22 Jan. 1761 Attleboro VR, MOLLY WHITMAN, b. ca 1743 Weymouth, MA, d. 24 May 1778 Chelsea, VT VR; dau of Daniel and Jerviah (Braman) Whitman. ...
The Franklin Gen. says the children were born in Winchester and this is possible, but the births are recorded in the Chelsea, VT VR, not in the Winchester records.'
Molly died 8 days after the birth of their youngest child.

Chelsea, VT was not settled until 1781. Presumably, the family moved there (a few years after Molly's death), and the children's birthdates were recorded in the Chelsea records, as appears to have been common with some town records.
