'Eleanor Westcott, dau. first Jeremiah, b-Old Warwick, Oct. 20, 1869 [sic], living as late as Dec. 13, 1686, being then named in her father's will, but further trace has not been found.'
↑ It seems that both sources have made an error in her birth year. Since her parents' names are both given in her birth record, and they weren't married until 1665, it seems most likely that she was born in 1669.
