Paternal line Y-chromosome DNA test-takers:
Familysearch.org shows this Ebenezer Foster as the son of John Foster Jr (Foster-808) and Mary Stuard (Stuard-4),instead of John Foster Sr and Mary/Martha Tompkins. That also fits better with the birth years: 1616 > 1647 > 1677, instead of 1616 > 1617.
According to RALPH TOMPKINS (TOMKINS) & PHILIP KNIGHT FAMILIES OF SALEM MASSACHUSETTS (http://catnip13.tripod.com/Tompkins.html), Ebenezer's mother is *Martha* Tompkins, not her (much older) sister Mary.
