On page 3 it stated the Edward was bp. on 28 Oct 1595 in Droitwich, co. >Worcester, England and then on page 6 it states that Edward Winslow was bp. >St. Peters, Droitwich, 20 Oct. 1595. > >Which of these two dates is the true and correct date of his baptism? Hi, This is the best authority I know of: Bangs, Jeremy Dupertuis,_Pilgrim Edward Winslow: New England's First International Diplomat_(NEHGS, Boston, 2004) p.1 "Edward Winslow...was born on October 18 and baptized at St. Peter's Church, Droitwich, Worcester, on October 20, 1595." Footnote, same page, "According to [silver book 5], Winslow was baptized on Oct. 28. This was evidently a typographical error. The note goes on to substantiate the date.
