Person talk:Benjamin Tucker (1)


birth date [5 June 2016]

I removed the unsourced birth date of 8 Mar 1645-6. While this is plausible, the location was "Of Weymouth", when the History of Weymouth says he was born at Weymouth, but his father soon moved to Gloucester and later Milton, so normally wouldn't be described of as "of Weymouth". The History of Weymouth has no further information on him other than he was b. about 1646. This indicates the author, as did I, found no birth record for Benjamin in Weymouth records (nor did I find them in NEHGR's collection, i.e., anywhere), which makes me suspicious how somebody could say it is precisely 8 Mar 1645/6. --Jrich 02:14, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
