Note

From WikiTree, regarding Sarah, daughter of Henry Gould and Sarah Warr:

"There is apparently a theory that this Sarah Gould married John Gould in Ipswich in 1695 and died in 1721 in Salisbury. There is no entry for either event in the collected vital records of Ipswich or Salisbury. Furthermore, the probate papers from the death of Sarah's brother, Henry, referenced above, disprove both marriage and death, at least until after July of 1733."

A Sarah Baker, born 1640, married a John Gould, son of Zacheus.
