    [Note: the date of death is buried and not visible. Although the top part of the memorial says "Death: Apr. 21, 1760/Massachusetts, USA", the bottom says the inscription "should say ... Apr 2 1760", indicating none of the contributors have seen it, and therefore the data given in the memorial merely reflects the various differences noted in the above sources.]
