• Notes

  Of her baptism at Dorchester on 17 Jun 1655, Records of the First Church at Dorchester in New England, 1636-1734 [Boston, 1891] says "Mary Smith was baptized her baptism having been deferred upon the excommunication of her father & mother". It seems likely that she was born around January or February of 1655.
