    Edward Foster [#9134], b. Chelmsford 29 Jan 1689, m . Remembrance Fletcher. "Letter date Oct. 13, 1740" [It appears to mean letters of administration dated 13 Oct 1740, since it adds also, "Bridget, guardian June 8, 1741." suggesting 12 Jul 1740 is the correct death date if Bridget needed a guardian on this date].
