Poley Rich Daughter to Jacob Rich & Mary his wife Born September 23'd AD 1779.
{Note: the birth record of Mary and brother Charles both look, at quick glance, like 1779, though not on the same date, so not twins. They and their siblings are entered as a group, so probably copied into the record from a Bible. Source:Allred, Marilyn. Town of Warwick, Franklin County, Massachusetts, Genealogical Records 1739-1900, Births, Marriages,, p. 232, used 1779 for Charles and changed (incorrectly as it turns out) Mary to 1780. A little bit of reflection would suggest it is easy to misread 1777 as 1779 and an analysis of the spacing of siblings would suggest, rather, that Charles was born in 1777 and that Allred changed the wrong one. This is confirmed by both Charles', and Mary's, age at death.]
