    BARRETT, Sarah, d. John and Martha, [born] Sept. 11, 1741.
    [Note: this date, as written, is less than 8 months after the birth of sister Patty, so chances are this is the erroneous date. Following NEHGR article, it is assumed that it should be 11 Sep 1742 which results in a more typical spacing of sibling births. This 1888 article predates the publishing of the Chelmsford VRs (1914) and so may very well represent an independent reading of the records?]

  3.   Chelmsford VRs give the burial of Oliver Parker on 6 Jan 1786, and of wid. Sarah Parker on 4 May 1788. This is possibly Sarah and her husband. Since they sold their share of their mother's estate prior to her probate, Sarah was mentioned by name, but it did not indicate actual participation in the mother's probate in 1795, so that doesn't necessarily mean she was alive then. Gravestones may provide age at death, which would be helpful, but don't seem to be at Find A Grave, or in the cemetery lists found in Waters' History of Chelmsford.
