    In a case regarding land title, 29 January 1756, (Benjamin Wentworth's) wife deposed that she was seventy-six years old, and that she came to live at Cochecho [Dover] fifty-nine years before. This would place her coming in 1697, and her age at that time to be seventeen years. Her descendants give her name as Sarah Allen, from what place does not appear, but tradition says from Salisbury, Mass. She died at the house of her grandson Bartholomew4, 12 July 1770, aged 91 years.
