MERRILL, Sarah, d. Thomas and Martha, [died] Nov. 15, 1754.
Source:Merrill, Samuel. Merrill Memorial, p. 261, says Sarah, b. 7 Apr 1754, d. 7 Apr 1754. Not only does this contradict the death record in the Salisbury VRs, but no birth record for Sarah is found. While perhaps there is some basis for her birth in 1754 that the author is not telling us, the gap between her and the previous sibling (Martha, b. 1746, i.e., 8 years) makes this suspicious.
