     Huldah was born in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, England. She was christened there on 18 March 1631 in The Priory Church of St. Peter.2 Huldah married William Davis circa 1655 in Boston in the Massachuetts Bay Colony.3 William and Huldah had children: Sarah [9/43/1654], Elizabeth [6/26/1655], Mary [12/07/1656], Rebecca [8/08/1658], Huldah [10/21/1659], Ruth [12/17/1660], Ruth [born 2/12/1662], John [6/14/1663], Deborah [4/16/1665], Margaret [born 11/13/1667], Joseph [born 9/03/1669], Hannah [born 8/19/1674] & Jane [born 8/19/1674]. Except where noted the above dates are of their baptisms.
