Foster, Moses, small box, bur. Aug. 27, 1776, a. 56 y. CR1
↑ Since the burial is recorded in Beverly, Moses appears to be the husband of Hannah, and this association gives both the death date and estimated birth date. See Family:Moses Foster and Hannah Lee (1) for a discussion of why it is thought he is the son of Jeremiah Foster and Dorothy Rust. The birth of Jeremiah's son Moses is not recorded, and no details about him seem to be known, but he is listed as one of the older children in the family in Source:Pierce, Frederick Clifton. Foster Genealogy, p. 147. If Pierce's ordering is accurate, he is the second of three children whose birth falls in the gap between his parents marriage in 1717 (Source:Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts, United States. Vital Records of Ipswich, Massachusetts to End of the Year 1849, p. 2:169) and the baptism of his sister Joanna in 1726.
