Death

Death:
Date: 13 SEP 1774
Place: Plymouth, Grafton County, New Hampshire
Note: though the Plymouth town death record calls her, "Mary Powers, wife ofNahum" and Wheat Genealogy (1960) says she died young, both of whichjust further the confusion of Sarah with her sister Mary who may wellhave died young, her children's birth records make it clear she wasnamed Sarah[1][2][3]


Note

Note: The best analysis I've seen for the name of the wife of Nahum Powers isin the transcription of the Plymouth, N.H. Vital Records which statesthat based on the birth records of her children her name was Sarah
