Family talk:Benoni Learned and Sarah Wright (1)

Watchers

From Benoni Learned and Sarah Moore (1): This page is garbage [17 March 2011]

To the extent that anything on this page has any justification, there are sources that say that Benoni Learned m. Sarah Moore. However this is a discredited belief that probably never had any evidence to start with. As Sarah was admitted to Sudbury church as Benoni's wife in 1690 (his first wife died in 1688), she is clearly not the Sarah Moore who was born 6 years before in 1684. Further, she released her rights in her father's estate (Capt. Edward Wright of Sudbury) in a 1708 deed showing she wasn't a Moore at all, but a Wright.

But Benoni's birth date of 1680 and the marriage of 1707 are completely fabricated pieces of data. Benoni was born 1657 in Chelmsford, 1680 was the date of his first marriage, and his second marriage occurred before 1690. Benoni d. 1738 at the age of 81. See the Learned Family, or Bond's Watertown Genealogies, etc.

I am removing Sarah Moore from this page and then merging this Family page into Family:Benoni Learned and Sarah Wright (1). --Jrich 23:40, 17 March 2011 (EDT)
