Eleazer Graves (106) was born 12 Dec. 1711 at Hatfield, and died 24 Sept. 1756. He married Sarah Belding, daughter of Samuel Belding of Hatfield, on 1 Oct. 1736. She died 26 Sept. 1766. They moved about 1745 to Athol, Mass., where he was a leading citizen. Their first four children were born in Hatfield and their last five in Athol.

↑ Based on the birth of her husband in 1711, Sarah was probably a child of Samuel's second wife whom he married 7 May 1713, presumably the first one of the 2nd marriage since named after his deceased wife, apparently. Leaving room for Thankful around 1716, before Lydia whose birth is stated to be 1718 (using the order from the History of Hadley Genealogies) suggests a birth about 1714.
