Correcting the tree’s bare ‘ABT 1771’ estimate to a documented terminus ante quem: Hoyt (Old Families of Salisbury and Amesbury, Mass., Vol. II, p. 786) states that administration of Theophilus’s estate was granted to Seth Clark on 27 May 1771, meaning he died on or before that date, consistent with (not contradicting) the existing ‘prob. d. at sea’ estimate already cited to this same page. Needs independent verification: the underlying South Hampton/Rockingham Co., NH or Essex Co., MA probate record itself (not yet located), which would likely supply an exact death date — this compiled genealogy is an authored work, capping the fact at QUAY 1 despite its close agreement with the tree’s existing citation.[4]
