  2. It is assumed that Molly, if she existed, died very soon, since there is no baptism listed in Dedham Church records, as there is for the two previous children. There is no reason to not believe the birth record, and one would expect a child born about this point in time, but there are many errors among records marked "Town copy with additions", not being contemporary records. No such daughter is listed in Source:Ward, Andrew Henshaw. Ward Family, p. 57, nor Source:Jackson, Francis. History of the Early Settlement of Newton, County of Middlesex, Massachusetts, from 1639 to 1800, p. 434.
