Looks like Abiel Packard should be detached as husband here ... He is 70 yrs. younger and was m. to Abigail Harris, who outlived him.

I agree Toby, findagrave.com also has 1648 but I think it probably is 1658. Thank you

The birth date seems inconsistent with the rest of the life story. The parents married in 1657, and the children were born at dates that would make the mother about 50 when giving birth. Perhaps the date was transcribed wrong? Could it be 1658?
