↑ There is a death record in Charlestown VRs, p. 229: Caleb Call, son of Caleb & Esther Call, d. Dec. 7, 1708. The records are not in order, but it is with some deaths in 1709/10, so one might assume it should be 1709. No Caleb & Esther is found. Perhaps it was reported about the same time as the birth of sister Esther and there was confusion with the names?
