    [Note: Cutter does show Margaret's birth as 11 Oct 1711, but gives no explanation or location, and the basis for this date cannot be found. Cutter often borrowed without attribution from various acquaintances, so this should not be regarded as particularly authoritative, as he has other errors in this family (like listing Margaret twice: raising the possibility that this birthdate goes with Deborah). Ironically, Find A Grave has this as the birth date of Deborah, which is consistent with her death date, but nothing seems to suggest they are twins nor provides the basis for this date, whatever it is. If the baptism is in birth order, Margaret is the youngest daughter born before 1716, and her marriage in 1739 suggests a birth earlier than 1711 would be unlikely.]
