    [Note: given the order of this list, and typical naming conventions, it is assumed Elizabeth is the oldest daughter, born about 1699. Addendum: note the father's probate indicates Mary, not listed here, is the oldest daughter, Elizabeth is Elizabeth Rogers, and the death record of Elizabeth Rogers gives her age at death, working out to a birth in 1705.]

  6.   Note: Source:Leonard, Ermina Newton. Newton Genealogy, p. 717, claims Elizabeth d. 1746 and James Minott married an unspecified third wife. This is an error, apparently due to misreading the death record of her daughter ("in the 21st year of her age") found in Concord Births, p. 170. In fact, Elizabeth survived him, was co-executor of his will (Middlesex Probate 15233) and it was she that married a third time (documents in the probate referring to her as Mrs Elizabeth Rogers, the late widow of James Minot of Concord).
