Biography

Her dad's will calls her "Sarah Styles"[1]

Who did she marry?

"Stiles" was a family name in Gloucester County and in Salem County (where her sister Elizabeth was married).

On a 23 Apr 1743 deed of her father's, "James Steel" is listed as his neighboring landowner...

Research Notes

  • Some trees have attached the marriage record for a Sarah Turner and William Cozens dated 25 Nov 1794 Gloucester County to her, but I am skeptical -- she would have been a middle aged widow so why no married name as you would expect? This Sarah is more likely to be a niece it looks like. There is a "Sarah Cozens" shows up on a 1795 ratable in Greenwich Township. If she did marry William Cozens, he's a descendant of Jacob Cozens (bef.1659-bef.1701), there are many of them and the tree needs some filling in.
  • DOD on some trees is 15 October 1801 Gloucester County, New Jersey, USA. No sources.
