- Source:Essex Antiquarian (Essex Antiquarian), Vol. 1, p. 60, adds a daughter Rhoda, b. Feb 1743, d. Feb 1743. It makes room for this daughter by changing Priscilla's birth from 6 Feb 1742/43 to 6 Feb 1744, and Lydia's from 7 Mar 1744-5 to 7 Mar 1745. The double-dating is explicitly indicated in the published VRs and this article seems to be massaging it to fit what they want. Further, the published VRs show no birth or death for Rhoda in 1743. They do indicate that Priscilla's name was unavailable [unreadable? missing?] and filled in based on church records. As published, this family is full with normal spacing, leaving no room for adding another daughter in 1743. To add Rhoda requires the birth of three children in a two year span, and two misinterpretations by the compilers of the VRs. It seems more likely that this 1743 Rhoda is a misinterpretation.
