Hoping to learn of a reliable source for this Richard Leach's birth and death.

Perhaps you will have better luck. I did not find such a son mentioned in the Richard Leach 1685 will, "Suffolk County (Massachusetts) probate records, 1636-1899," 10:153-155; digital images, FamilySearch, FSL film 584130, digital collection (DGS) 7703073, images 89-90; dated "this Seaventeenth of Jun : One Thousand Six Hundred Eighty and five."
