A discrepancy is noted, in that his brother Benjamin's birth date is recorded, in _Vital Records of Rochester, Massachusetts to the Year 1850_ (Boston, MA: New England Historical Society - 1914), p145, as having been born on 18 Dec 1682. That would be less than 2 months before the recorded birth of Seth.
In the town record book of Rochester is an entry, "Seth Hammonds childrens births by his wife Mary are as followeth:"[1]
jerusha Hammond their Daughter was born the 2d Day of may in the year 1708
Aculus Hammond their Son was born the 15th Day of Desember in ye year 1709
jedediah Hammond their Son was born the 16th Day of Desember in ye year 1711
