Edward as Sarah's father is presumed (but not confirmed) by the 1787 McAllister-Russell MR where Sarah is of "Bow" and the 1790 Census, where Edward is the only Russell in Bow. It is possible that Sarah was in Bow in 1787 NOT as Edward's daughter, but it is unlikely.
Edward's younger brother James was also in Haverhill when he married Susanna Richardson in 1749.
