"… Mr. Sprague thinks … that 'a child of the church' in the record of Sarah's admission means that she was baptized as an infant in Braintree, which suggests that she belonged to one of those Braintree families (such as Brackett and Crosby) which had removed to Billerica. This is an important clue for descendants who seek to identify her."
