Person talk:Sarah Parkhurst (8)

Evidence?

What is the evidence for thinking that Sarah died in 1649 as shown on this page?

If Source:The New England Historical and Genealogical Register, p. 156:332 is correct in identifying her as the daughter of George Parkhurst and Sarah Garfield, then she was mentioned in her grandfather's will of 30 Dec 1668, and so not only did not die in 1649, she did not even die young.

Even if that is not right, the settlement of Abraham Browne's estate which only mentions John Parkhurst, possibly implying that all the rest of Sarah Browne's children with George Parkhurst are dead, is dated 7 Oct 1691, leaving a 42 year interval for her to die without contradicting that. --Jrich 23:02, 31 July 2009 (EDT)
