    [Note: the record in Arnold, cited above, is 1731, as is the index entry for film 912787, "Vital records, 1680-1850 [Bristol, Rhode Island]", Author: Bristol (Rhode Island). Town Clerk. So the year of death is probably an error. Wondering if that is an indication of this source's reliability, it is also unclear how this death date is known to apply to this Nicholas, and not his nephew, who was born on 14 Mar 1726-7, and according to this source [#1569 on p. 138], and others, died young (e.g., not mentioned in his father's will). If this death was for a 30 year old man, one might expect a probate file could exist?]
