    [Note: this work speculates reasonably that Sarah was "probably born in Cambridge, Mass., where Samuel Cooper inherited the homestead which he sold in 1730, Apr. 14", but the only record of the birth is actually found in Grafton. That it uses the new style year may be a further indication that it was recorded after the fact, and hence does not represent the birth location.]
