Hopkinton VRs, p. 380, has intentions of Samuel Walker and Mary Palmer of Upton dated 31 Jan 1764. The above items show this marriage occurred, but when is in question due to this discrepancy. Various secondary sources appear to use the 1760 date (e.g., Felt Genealogy, p. 51; "Early Settlers of Rowley" in EIHC Vol. 22, p. 292). Whether this Hopkinton record is meant to be the same event, and if so, which is right, has not been resolved.
