↑ As shown by the citations of the Concord records^S1, she was called Bridget in the town copy and Ruth in the county copy. Source:Adams, William Frederick. James Hosmer, Cambridge, 1635; Settled in Concord, Massachusetts, Soon After and Source:Hosmer, George L. Hosmer Genealogy, Descendants of James Hosmer Who Emigrated to America in 1635 and Settled in Concord, Mass both call this child Ruth. Neither show any details beyond her birth, so she presumably died young, and apparently there is no other evidence beyond the birth to give us any clues which name was used.
