Silas Paddack ["of Zachariah and Elisabeth Paddack"] he was born on the 29th day of March 1724/5.
[Note: this date makes no sense. First, it is after the start of the old-style new year on 25 March, so no double dating is needed. Second brother Phillip is born 19 Sep 1725 which rules out the March that partially 1724/1725 as a possibility. Probably it was meant to say 29 Mar 1724, especially in view of spacing of sibling births, but that is speculative.]
