  5. ↑ The death record must have an error in it, as it has not provided enough information to identify the parents. It looks like Isack, but there is a dot above it, so perhaps Isaih. The mother's name seems clearly Hannah Davis. No such parents are found, much less the birth of a daughter Eliza. Isaiah of Athol (not Roxbury) had a wife Esther. The calculated birth 8 Aug 1793 is very close to an Eliza born in Roxbury on 5 Aug 1793 to Jeremiah and Abigail Richards. He died in 1800 and the probate file lists no will or distribution, so his heirs are unknown.
