Elishua Hutchinson

Question

I don't know if they count as PGMs.

I nearly thought this was a merge candidate, but looking at the imports I guess he died young, prob. date unknown, and has been confused with his later brother.  Can anybody confirm?

Unfortunately there's no way to tell the system not to fill in a date when gedcomming or merging.

I've put in a rejected match as a precaution.

Answer 1

It appears from the source below that Elishua b. 1637 was a daughter, and Elisha b. 1641 was a son.  The records from First Church are likely Baptismal records and not birth records.  Elisha being bapt.  aged about 13 days.

Other sources indicate dau.  Elishua - died young but it is not recorded here.

SOURCE:  City Document 130:  Boston Births. Baptisms, Marriages and Deaths: 1630-1699: Genealogical Pub. Co. 1978:

(p. 5): First Church

1637:  Elishua daughtr of Edward Hutchinson the younger 5 day: 3 Mo.

(p. 12) First Church

1641: Elisha of Edward Hutchinson the younger , aged about 13 days  28 day  9 mo

The father, Edward Hutchinson would be PGM.

Oo-er, that's what it says, I didn't notice.  My only excuse is, I'm not the first.  Thanks.
