  2.   The distribution of his mother's dower lists his children: Eleazer, Jonathan, Mary, Abigail, Alice, and Lydia. Source:Pepperell, Middlesex, Massachusetts, United States. Vital Records to the Year 1850, p. 73, lists births of three unnamed children (child in 1757, daughters in 1763 and 1765) and a death (child d. 1754 age 3, so birth calculates to Nov 1750). Source:Brainard, Homer Worthington. Genealogy of First Four Generations and Names of Fifth Generation of Male Descendants of John Nutting of Groton, Mass.,, p. 33 and 46 adds that Eleazer b. 13 Sep 1760, but has virtually no information on the others (Jonathan and Abigail were warned out of Pepperell in 1774). That basis for this is unknown but appears to be from Revolutionary War records. There are not enough data points to estimate births with any confidence, but if Eleazer was born in 1760, possibly something like child b. 1751 d 1754, Mary b. about 1754, Abigail b. about 1757, Eleazer b. 1760, Alice b. 1763, Lydia b. 1765 and Jonathan b. say 1768.
