Louella, LDS website has an Esther Bosworth born 18 Aug 1687 (one year off your date)in Rehoboth, MA to Joseph & Esther (Smith) Bosworth. The same couple is shown as having a dau Esther born 10 Jan 1685 in Rehoboth. I wonder if one is the birth date and one is the baptism date? Also in the RI Genealogical Register Volume 14 Pg 198 (possibly published 1991) There is an article "Some Descendants of Solomon Drowne of Bristol, RI" by Dorothy Chapman Saunders Ph.D. which states:

"Solomon Drowne was born 23 Jan 1682 probably in Kittery, Maine and died in Bristol, RI 9 Oct 1730. He was the son of Leonard & Elizabeth (Abbot)Drowne of Kittery & Boston, Mass. where Leonard was a shipwright and one of the founders of the First Baptist Church in Maine in 1682. Savage said that Solomon married 8 Nov 1705, wife's name unknown, who died 26 Jul 1744, and that they had eleven children. The IGI RI said that he married in Bristol Hester/Esther Bosworth. An Esther Bosworth was born in Rehoboth, Ma 10 Jan 1685 to Joseph & Esther Bosworth and she may have been Solomon's wife. Solomon & Esther Drown joined the Congregational Church of Bristol on 24 Mar 1723."

The article then goes on to discuss their children.
