Person talk:Sarah Bass (7)

birth date [22 September 2014]

An unsourced birth date of "28 Ooct 1673" in Mendon was posted here and removed. The parents were living in Braintree at the time, not Mendon, and no such birth is found in Braintree records. Given the parents marriage in 1660 and Sarah being named after her mother, it would be more likely that 1663, not 1673 was the birth date, and at that time, the parents were living in Bogestown near Medfield. It is supposed Sarah was born before Abigail, whose birth is found in the Medfield records as 2 Jan 1667-8, but secondary sources seem to indicate no record of Sarah's birth has been found. Therefore the above birth date was replaced with Abt 1665. --Jrich 19:09, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
