    Sarah Wheat, d/o Moses and Thomasine Wheat, m. (1) 27 May 1675 John Bigelow. In her father's will [1691] she is Sarah Hill. On 27 Nov 1726 the heirs of Joshua Wheat sold interests in land willed to them by Abigail (Wheat) Brown to the heirs of Sarah Hill, who were Moses Hill, Abraham Hill and Phineas Upham [Malden VRs: m. Tamesin Hill] of Malden; Jonathan Sprague and Joseph Wright of Woburn.

  2.   Note: It appears that the name of her husband in Sarah's first marriage, Bigelow, is wrong. Her father's probate shows that she was the woman who married Isaac Hill, and Isaac Hill married Sarah Bicknall. A perusal of Source:Howe, Gilman Bigelow. Genealogy of the Bigelow Family of America reveals all John Bigelows who could have married in 1675 otherwise married. A birth of John Bicknall in Charlestown 27 Feb 1675/76 to "John & Sarah" is probably them. Source:Torrey, Clarence Almon. New England Marriages Prior to 1700, p. 67, gives the name of the first husband as John Bicknell with the explicit comment "BIGELOW is wrong".
