   CUSHMAN, Mary [dup. {Buck}] [dup. {first}] w. Allerton [dup. q.v.], [died] Dec. 13, 1725 [dup. {Oct. 15, 1725, in 37th y.}], in P. [Dec. 15, GR1}
   [Comments (in braces here), were added by Lewis Bradford, town clerk 1812-1850 according to "Explanations", p. 5. The gravestone suggests Bradford's mention of Oct as birth month is presumably an error based on old/new style month numbering? 37th year, so age 36, so born about 1689.]

   The final settlement of Isaac Buck shows his son James left a daughter Mary, "of legal age in 1705 and hence was born presumably by 1687".
