↑ Daughter Esther's birth year and parents are not recorded in Woburn Records. A birth year of 1740 is estimated based on her cited age at death (21) in 1761. If a 1740 birth is assumed, then Isaac is a good candidate for her father given that he had children born around that date, his first wife was named "Esther," and 2 of his other children also bore that name. Assigning Phebe as her mother is the only choice for a 1740 birth, but Esther could have been her mother if she was in fact born earlier, say 1736."
