[1372] Ancestry of Zipporah Smith from a GEDCOM at RootsWeb by Helen S. Ullmann, CG, FASG [hsullman@comcast.net].

Note that Leudemann suggests a birthdate of about 1688 based on the gap
between the births of Jonathan and Joshua. Some references (Mackenzie)
inexplicably omit Samuel from John's offspring despite his being in John's will.

"The Correct Ancestry of Ebenezer Smith"
Judith Miner Hine Luedemann

Zipporah"; married 30 May 1722 in Needham, Mass., Zipporah Mors, born 10 April 1702 in
Medfield, Mass., daughter of Joshua (Samuel, Joseph, Samuel) Morse and (1) Elizabeth
(Penniman) Morse; died ca 1780 (Samuel's probate) in Ashford."

"More on the Smiths of Ashford, Connecticut"
Helen Schatvet Ullman
Connecticut Nutmegger, v36, pp559-564 (Mar 2004)
"Samuel Smith was one of the two youngest sons, so, unless he was a twin,
he was probably born about 1699."
