Residence* In Bridgewater, John and Sarah Hayward lived with their family on the Plain between the late old Mr. Jonathan Copeland's place and the old Powder House, where their daughter and son-in-law, Sarah and Nathaniel Brett, lived after them and where the young Jonathan Copeland lived in 1897.2

(Father-NOT) Birth4 May 1782Josiah Hayward Jr. could not have been the father of Otis Hayward who was born on 4 May 1782 in Bridgewater, Plymouth County, Massachusetts (Continental Congress). Both the History of Bridgewater source and the Hayward source reported that Otis was the son of Josiah Hayward Jr. of Bridgewater, although each identified a different mother. Josiah Jr. died in 1773, nine years before Otis was born in 1782, so a father-son relationship is clearly impossible. The History of Bridgewater source noted his mother as Mary Dunham and the Hayward source noted her as Molly Sever. Another review of the evidence indicates to this researcher that Otis was actually the son of a yet another Josiah Hayward and his wife Dinah (__?__) Muxham.7,8,1
