This profile is evidently a duplicate of Ludlow-121 because Timothy Brewster who died an old man ca. 1741-49 was previously attached as a son of this Sarah. Said Timothy was detached from this profile while remaining attached to Ludlow-121. In the absence of any sources for the facts previously posited in this profile, I have removed all data inconsistent with Ludlow-121. Anyone adding a credible source can re-enter whatever data is supported by the cited source. If no credible source is added soon, this profile can be extinguished or the nearly empty profile merged with Ludlow-121.

Ludlow-1190 and Ludlow-121 appear to represent the same person because: same spouse, same son Timothy, dates wrong on -1190 because person who created it did not have pre-1700 certification. No sources for any info on -1190. Please merge retaining all info from -121
posted by S (Hill) Willson
Ludlow-1190 and Ludlow-121 are not ready to be merged because: more research needed to confirm. -1190 has no real, or sourced dates, so could be a different Sarah

Ludlow-1189 and Ludlow-121 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate - same spouse
Ludlow-1189 and Ludlow-121 do not represent the same person because: Dates are too far off. No sources on -1189.
posted by S (Hill) Willson
Ludlow-1189 and Ludlow-121 appear to represent the same person because: Although the dates on 1189 appear wrong, this appears to be the same person and should be merged using 121 data.

How can you be sure? Who was it that died in 1722? It could be that Sarah has the wrong spouse and the dates are correct…

Ludlow-1190 and Ludlow-1189 appear to represent the same person because: Potential duplicate

I have been concerned about the correctness of Nathaniel. How does one access the Mayflower book. Figure those early generations out from William must be well documented. I couldn’t find. New at the Mayflower part. Thanks.

I'm disconnecting Sarah and Timothy. They aren't listed in the Mayflower Society Book on this family. It also seems an unlikely fit. I suspect Sarah and Timothy belong to a different Nathaniel Brewster

Samuel Thompson’s wife Hannah (Brewster) bore their son Jonathan on 10-25-1710 so Hannah was probably born later than 1659. She was almost certainly born after her brother Daniel who was baptized at Alby, Norfolk in October 1662. A better estimate of her year of birth would be 1669, the year her (second) husband Samuel Thompson was born. John Muncy, Hannah’s first husband , was born in 1660.. Hannah’s father Nathaniel was in England in 1659 and he did not settle at Brookhaven until 1665, though he had returned to New England by 1663.

The date of May 19 came from the error-filled family history by Benjamin Thomposon who gave her birth date as 5-19-1679, obviously an error, and thus all components of that date should be abandoned.

Sarah (Ludlow) Brewster witnessed a deed on 10-24-1699,* so she must have died after that date.

The deed was from Abraham Whitehair/Whittier to Elias Bogley.*

Ludlow-121 and Ludlow-310 appear to represent the same person because: Same person, her death date is questionable since there are few sources.
posted on Ludlow-310 (merged) by Ellen Gustafson
Sarah's parents were living in Connecticut in 1639, so I suspect her birth place was likely somewhere near Hartford, CT or in Fairfield Country.

Also, is there actually a record of her marriage to Nathaniel Brewster? It is my understanding that the church records for St. Michan's church, where her mother is supposed to be buried, hence the church Sarah likely attended, are actually missing for these years.

Ludlow-170 and Ludlow-121 appear to represent the same person because: they are. I have adopted orphan profile, Ludlow-170, on 13 Nov 2016. I have edited birth and death dates, and added her parents as I have them in my family tree at Ancestry.com.

I adopted this orphan profile on 13 Nov 2016.

I believe that Sarah LUDLOW is my paternal (MUNCY line) 7th great grandmother.

Debi, I believe that your rejected match of Ludlow-170 and Ludlow-121 is wrong. Ludlow-170's dates are wrong.

In my tree, "TWISTED BRANCHES, SISSON - MUNCY - DOBLE - SNYDER", I have: HANNAH BREWSTER 1659–1755 Birth ABT 19 MAY 1659 • Brookhaven, Suffolk Co., Long Island, New York Death 17 NOV 1755 • ,, New York as wife of: JOHN MUNCY 1660–1691 Birth 24 OCTOBER 1660 • Ipswich, Essex Co., Massachusetts Death 19 FEBRUARY 1691 • Brookhaven, Suffolk Co., Long Island, New York

and as daughter of: SARAH LUDLOW 1639–

Birth 1639 • Fairfield, New Haven Co., Connecticut Death Brookhaven, Suffolk Co., New York

and NATHANIEL (Reverend) BREWSTER 1620–1690 Birth ABT 1620 • Bristol, Somerset, ENGLAND Death 18 DECEMBER 1690 • Setauket, Suffolk Co., New York

Hannah and John are my 6th great grandparents.

Ludlow-170 and Ludlow-121 do not represent the same person because: Birth and death dates too widely spaced.

Ludlow-170 and Ludlow-121 appear to represent the same person because: SARAH LUDLOW

SARAH LUDLOW

Birth 1639 • Fairfield, New Haven Co., Connecticut

Death Brookhaven, Suffolk Co., New York

SARAH died after 3-MAY-1695, based on date of her approval as Executrix of NATHANIEL's Will -- May 3, 1695.

I believe that Sarah (LUDLOW) BREWSTER is my paternal (MUNCY line) 7th great grandmother.

Ludlow-414 and Ludlow-121 appear to represent the same person because: while dates are estimated on both profiles, these are clearly intended to be the same person
