I doubt that anyone knows how many Sarah Belchers there were in the 1700s but as numerous as the Belcher family was and as popular as the name Sarah was I'll wager there were many. Daniel #2 married Sarah Belcher (1729-1799) about 1750.

Sarah Belcher can not be the mother of Elisha if he was born in 1750 and she was born in 1769
