Treasure Chest Thursday: 1681 Birth Record of Crispas Richards In Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony

It's Treasure Chest Thursday - an opportunity to look in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history research and genealogy musings.

The treasure today is the 1681 birth record of Crispas Richards in the Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony vital records book:

The snippet for Crispas Richards birth:

The extracted information for this birth record is:

"[RICHARDS] Crispas, s. John and Mary, Oct. 20, 1681."

The source citation for this record is:

Vital Records of Lynn, Massachusetts to the end of the Year 1849 (Salem, Mass. : The Essex Institute, 1906), 2 Volumes, Births, page 351, Crispas Richards entry, 20 October 1681, son of John and Mary.

This is a Derivative Source record, with Primary Information and Direct Evidence of the birth and parents names of Crispas Richards.  This book was compiled from original handwritten and/or copied Lynn town records by the book's authors.

Crispus Richards (1681-1763) was born 20 October 1681 in Lynn, Massachusetts Bay Colony, the son of John and Mary (Brewer) Richards.  He married Sarah Collins (1678-1758) on 21 December 1702 in Lynn.  Crispus died 17 May 1763 in Lynn.

Crispus and Sarah (Collins) Richards are my 7th great-grandparents through Joseph Richards (1703-1748) who married Mary Bowden in 1726.
