Hi Ralf: I wanted to let you know that Samuel Aldrich that you have as being born in Braintree 1661 is not in the Braintree, MA Records 1640-1793. The first child for Joseph and Patirence is Joseph b. 14 (5) 1663 pg 643 the other child, Sarah b. 29 (8) 1677 Braintree, MA Records 1640-1793 pg 653. On pg 717 Joseph and Patience were m. 26 (12) ______ [1661 or 2 perhaps] by Capt Torry of Weymouth, MA. I fail to understand why people must change the dates from what is listed in the books! Samuel 3 and Jane Puffer: No Aldrich births for any of these in Braintree Records.
