If the death date is to be consistent with the referenced source ( Morse, J. Howard. Morse genealogy : comprising the descendants of Samuel Anthony, William, and Joseph Morse and John Moss : being a revision of the Memorial of the Morses published by Rev. Abner Morse in 1850. New York: unknown, 1903. #320 p.42), then that date would be 4/18/1734. I don't know the quality of the source, but if it's going to be used to substantiate a date, then it should be transcribed correctly at least. I looked and there doesn't seem to be any other source document on death date online.
