  2. ↑ The Uxbridge records here shows the death of siblings Jemima, Timothy, Nathan and Elizabeth all in 1741. This appears to be an error of memory or recording. The same records show Jemima d. 1742 (here), and two of the siblings do not appear to have even been born by 1741 (Nathan and Elizabeth, see here). While some websites want to add some speculative children (Nathan and Elizabeth) before Jemima, Gideon being born in 1715 is not likely to have married much before that date, and given the obvious error with Jemima, this doesn't seem all that likely. While all these problems suggest no confidence can be placed in the 1741 death records at all, they are used only for Timothy, reluctantly, since they fit and there is no contradicting information.
