This is a frequently cited date from many published pedigrees. The ultimate source is not very clear, but may be from a family Bible as follows:

"Bible notes from bible that was in the posession of the grand dau of the
Thomas Dungan of Germantown, wife of Dr. W.W. Brunell residing in the
winter of 1875/76 at 1913 Green St, Phila. As puplished in the GSP:7 p.285"

If this is the original date as it appears in said Bible, the actual modern Gregorian calendar equivalent would be February 1, 1741. If this date has already been translated, the original Old Style date should be January 11, 1739.

But a more fundamental question: Is this a birth date or christening date?
