• Notes

  Plummer (citation details below) and Dana (citation details below) both have his death as 24 Apr 1639, but the actual Watertown record of his burial, as noted in Eva Belle Kempton 1 (citation details below), reads "Robert Bullard the hufband of Anne Bullard buried the 29d--4mo 40 years ould", which is to say, he was buried, and presumably died, in June, the fourth month by old-style reckoning.
