    "… Grace Norton Seward, died March 5, 1704."

    The compiler cites Hist, of Guilford, Conn., Smith, pp. 20, 24, 27, 41, 47, 78, 79, 158, 160, 181, 187. However, a review of those pages fails to find a statement of her death. It was probably an error by the compiler since there is a record of the death of her brother, John Norton, on that same date, as documented in the Ricker Compilation, p. 9322 ["Norton, … John Sr., d. 5 Mar 1703/4 - Guilford Births & Deaths"].
