    This book ignores the second John born to Palmer and Deborah (born Dec. 11 in an unknown year) listed in Arnold's VR of Rhode Island (which was published about 5 years earlier). It is not clear if the author had access to Arnold's book, or did independent research and did not find the second John or interpreted the record differently.

  3. If this person was the sixth child of Palmer and Deborah (as implied by the order of the list), it is possible that his name is incorrect. He appears to have been born too late to be the John Cleveland who was made a freeman in 1739 and married and had children by the early 1740's.
