Biography

Sarah was born in 1785. She was the daughter of John Baxter and Silence (Wight) Baxter (1743-1817).

Sarah was the sole heir to the estate of John Baxter (1746-1832)^[1]. She married Nathaniel Bosworth, "a settler in Medfield, from Dighton", in 1807 ^[2].

She appears to have been called "Sally" in some records ^[3]. (Note: The FamilySearch microfilm record referenced for this incorrectly lists the record location as "Lowell, Mass" when in fact if you scroll to the beginning it's shown to be Medfield)

She passed away in 1866.
