The birth data for Esther 'Hester' Kettell is out of sync sizeable gulf of time between her birth and the next supposedly eldest child, Mary Gale .

to see a precise birthdate—July 15, 1614—for her given there's no source for her baptism. If the birth year were somewhat valid, then it suggests one of two things:
1. Her parents had several children who didn''t survive.
2. Samuel married a different NN 1st wife before have the rest of the children with a disputed/unsourced 2d wife.

I'm not sure why Torrey thought "Mary Hilliard Ward" married Samuel in 1635. He probably didn't account for the first two children, or the birth estimates for the first two children on Geni need adfjusting forward.
