References
  1. The death date of 1687 is probably the result of misreading Source:Libby, Charles T. Knowles Family of Eastham, Massachuetts, p. 79:288, where it says Ruth was "sister of Rev. John Bower ('Bowers' in the Harvard Quinquennial Catalogue), A. B. (Harvard, 1649), who died in 1687". Given that Rev. John Bowers d. 14 Jun 1687 in Derby, Conn. [according to the elaboration in the footnote, and see sources on his page], this is probably not meant to be interpreted as Ruth's death date.
