[Note: the birth is not recorded, and the basis for this estimate is not given. It seems highly unlikely, creating a sequence of births every year in this family, an excessively long life, and marriage at an untypically old age. A birth about 1674 seems much more likely considering his marriage date combined with the births of all his siblings.]
