"Connecticut Births and Christenings, 1649-1906," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F7W5-RPX : 11 February 2018), Thankfull Bartlett, 17 Apr 1727; citing ; FHL microfilm unknown. is a different person. This person would have been 10 years older than Sarah. Her gravestone clearly indicates she was 82 in 1819, making her birth more like 1737, not 1727.
Preston-2229 and Preston-3527 appear to represent the same person because: I believe this is my 5 times great grandmother--(Once thought 4 times) as she was married to Cotton Fletcher my ancestor. My family record has them listed as such.
