Research Note
This William Baldwin is not the son of Henry and Abigail (Fiske) Baldwin. They did not have a son named William. The birth date listed for this profile is an exact match for their son Isaac Baldwin (1700-1759).
The information in this profile is not a helpful biography and some of the information is likely inaccurate. The 'source' is not really relevant to this profile (no birth, marriage, death information).

PM: Henry and Abigail (Fiske) Baldwin did not have a son, William! Their sons were 1) Henry (1693-1753); 2) David (1696-1770; who had a son William b. 1727); 3) Isaac (who was born 20 Feb 1700-1759; my direct ancestor and his birth is the same as William in this profile); 4) James (1705-1709); 5) James (1710-1791) and 6) Samuel (1717-1778), plus several daughters. The ONLY one of these sons to have a son named William was, again, David. I believe that William (b. 1727), the son of David became the legal guardian for his uncle Isaac's two youngest sons, Isaac and my 4x GGF, Josiah Baldwin in 1759. I have scoured through Baldwin's genealogy (I have an original edition), checked sources as best possible in the online NEHGS Register and Vinton's Richardson Memorial. The source that you have listed is not really a proper source. I see the William you have listed with a birth of 20 Feb 1700, but this William does not fit any of the Henry and Phebe (Richardson) Baldwin progeny. He could be a descendant of John Baldwin of Billerica, but the information in this profile really provides no clues. His name could be listed wrongly and perhaps it is Isaac given the exact same birth date. Given the sources and the fact that Henry and Abigail (Fiske) did not have a son William, I am detaching these parents from this profile.
