The children of Sam'll Rodman and Mary Rodman: ... Sarah Rodman was Borne the 20th of ye 12 m., 1739. [As written the next birth, of brother Joseph, is 2 months after this. The only simple way to interpret this to get an adequate gap is to assume it is an old style date (12=Feb) but the year is a new style 1738/39. This also seems to be the best solution respecting the parents' date of marriage.]
