In the meantime, I found some discrepancies when I looked in the Barbour Collection records for Greenwich. Charles 2 shows b. 24 Feb 1700, not 1705. Just a typo? Charles 4 shows b. 15 July 1705, not 22 Feb. Nathaniel b. 21 Feb. 1700, not 1700/1. Abigail is not shown in Barbour. Timothy shows b. 27 Jan. 1717/8. I assume 1718/8 is a typo. I didn't want to make corrections without giving you the opportunity to review first.
