    [Note: this birthdate is said to come from the family Bible of brother Roger Sherman, printed in 1768, so recorded well after the fact, probably by copying an older Bible. The birth location is not given. The previous child is recorded in Watertown, the next in Newton, and Charlestown (residence of the father when he married the mother in 1715) is also a possibility as dates of relocating are not given. Incidentally, this source is missing one child of John and Mehitable Battle.]
