Biography

Sarah was born in 1667 to John Breed and his first wife Sarah Hathorne. ^[1] It can be assumed that she married John Hood from Lynn, a husbandman (farmer) before their first child, Barberry (Barbara) was born in 1694 but no records of the actual date survived. ^[2][3]

In the diary of her brother-in-law, Zaccheus Collins (who married her sister Content), it's recorded that Sarah died on May 6th, 1747. ^[4]
