1673 Births.
Judith, the Daughter of John & Judith [Fisher], borne 21, 9 m'o.
[Note, the assumption of Fisher was inserted by the compilers. Its basis is unknown and it appears wrong. John Fuller and Judith Gay had just married in 1672 and having a daughter named Judith in 1673 would be very normal, especially since their next child is almost 2 years later in Sep 1675. This family is known to have had a daughter Judith since she is named in her father's will. John Fisher, on the other hand, seems to have no marriage record to any Judith, married to Hannah in Mar. 1674, and articles giving him a daughter Judith say she must have died young. So his entire marriage to Judith appears to be caused by this misidentification of which family this birth belongs to. In a weird and ironic twist, in the same volume of the Dedham Historical Register, one article on p. 4:21 gives this 1673 birth of Judith to the Fisher family, while another article on p. 4:160 gives the same Judith to the Fuller family, without any recognition by either of the existence of the other.]
