    [Vol. 1, p. 173, says "John, b. 29 Nov 1799; no further reported". This source notes the error in the age at death according to what "his grave-stone says". Of course, the Concord record says the same thing. Note: The picture at Find A Grave appears to say 32, but this is not quite right either, as we would expect either age 33, or its equivalent, in his 34th year. In any event, the death record of daughter Harriet identifies her parents as John Brigham of Leominster and Achsack --- of Waltham, which seems to show it is all the same person.]
