Person talk:Rachel Buttrick (1)

birth date [22 October 2011]

I removed the birth date of 17 Apr 1683 for Rachel. Vital records say this is the birth date of Mary with no hint of a twin. There is no sign of a birth or marriage of Rachel in Stow VRs. Israel, Jr., was born in Stow 2 Dec 1687, and the first child of Israel and Rachel is born 1714, which says Rachel need only be born by 1695 to be of legal age to marry in 1713 and have a child one year later. Thus it seems more likely that Rachel was born sometime after her brother Joseph who was b. 1687, possibly about 1690. --Jrich 16:33, 22 October 2011 (EDT) Assuming, of course, that her presence in this family has been accurately divined... since no sources were given and no birth or marriage record seems apparent. --Jrich 05:55, 25 December 2013 (UTC)
