    Debroah Sears the daughter of the abovesaid Pall and March [sic] Sears was born on the 11th day of March in the year 1705.
    [It is assumed March is being treated as the first month of 1705 based on the spacing of sibling's births, i.e, 1704-5. Source:May, Samuel Pearce. Descendants of Richard Sares (Sears) of Yarmouth, Mass., 1638-1888, p. 56, interprets this date as 1705-6, but this puts Deborah's birth only 9 months and two weeks before sister Ann's, while leaving over 3 years of space after the previous child Mercy. The preferred arrangement makes the gaps 2 years and 1 yr 9 months, which is much more in keeping with typical colonial spacing of about 2 years between children.]
