Torrey:"b 1696 (m 1704 is wrong); Lancaster"; BT:"Probably, however, the year of their marriage 1704, in Miss Charlotte Whitcomb's "Whitcomb Family in America" is too late. It apparently rests on the data furnished the Lancaster town clerk in 1825 by Henry Houghton of Putney, Vt., which is erroneous."; CJV: Houghton lineage document by Josiah Flagg, Lancaster MA town clerk, dated Jan. 20, 1826, gives date Dec.1 6, 1704; but it also gives Jacob as born in July 24 1680 based on Henry Houghton data which was erroneous.
