[Many errors, as noted]
Jonathan Foster [#6050], s/o Samuel Foster [#5999, p. 700, and Sarah Roberts], b. Reading 9 Jan [sic, June per records] 1712, d. 19 Apr 1775 [no record found], m. 1733 Dorothy Morrow [sic, usually given as Merrow], m. (2) Abigail ---.
[Additionally: lists two children that probably don't belong to him (David and Abraham: David overlaps with Mary's birth and neither are named in the probate, appear to be children of Abraham and Susanna Foster and included by Pierce's editing error), and doesn't list Mary who does, by birth record, and who is named in his probate file. Administration was not granted to his wife Abigail in 1807, Abigail's dower was distributed to heirs in 1807. His son Jonathan was granted administration on his main estate in 1776, Nathan Parker in 1805 to administer the left-over widow's thirds when she died.]
