    This source says of Nathaniel Millett: he and wife Ann had "Andrew, 6 July 1681; and his w. d. 5 June foll." No subsequent children are shown after Andrew. But the vital records clearly show "Ann, w. Nathaniel" dying on 9 Mar. 1717-18, age about 66. The vital records also clearly show that the person who died on 5 Jun 1682 is a Mary Millett (not Nathaniel's daughter Mary who died "12 : 11m : 1681", about 5 months earlier). Finally, "An" is clearly mentioned as the mother of the daughter Mary b. 1687/88 and the son Nathaniel b. 1685, i.e., after the putative death date of Ann. There is no marriage record showing a second wife named Ann. This appears to be an error.
