  3. ↑ Note: daughter's death record gives her father's birth place as Newton, so suspected of being the "WHITMORE, Enoch, ch. Joseph and Susanna, bp. --- [prob. before 1773]". The "probably before 1773" is presumably based on the surrounding records, but Joseph the father died 1766 and the mother remarried in 1767 a man from Needham, so this baptism was probably earlier than that, thus becoming a better match to the estimated birth date.
