    Waldo Chamberlain Sprague commissioned research in the parish registers of Saffron Walden, Essex [The New England Historical and Genealogical Register 107:218-20], but in this research the 1632 baptism of the daughter Hannah (or Ann) was missed. This conflicts with evidence about the daughter Mary, whose gravestone claims she died in 1704 in her seventy-third year [The New England Historical and Genealogical Register 107:219, which would calculate to about 1632, and would make her about fifteen years old at marriage. Given our knowledge of the other children, options are to place Mary's birth about 1634, which would make her impossibly young at marriage, or about 1628, which would conflict with the gravestone evidence. We have chosen the latter course.
