      ADDITIONAL INFO ON BIRTH:

      Rod Bigelow - Director. E-Mail: rodbigelow@netzero.net, Bigelow Society Inc., Modified - 05/09/2003, Mary was born in Watertown 14 Jan 1658. (There is some confusion on date of birth of Mary (Flagg) Bigelow. The Bigelow Society Site suggested the following explantation: If Mary was born 14 Jun 1653, she would be 67 yrs and 3 mos on her death on 7 Sept 1720, which is clearly marked on headstone. Therefore we can conclude that June was confused with Jan, and 1653 with 1658, both common mistakes.)."
      NOTE FROM CHARLES DUNFORD:
      I believe there is a controversy about her birth year. The gravestone says that she was 67 at death BUT She has a brother Eleazer on 14 May 1653 One of the above must be incorrect. [2]
