It appears probable that Sarah Borden Thurston died sometime in the early 1760s. Rhode Island records show a Peleg Thurston wedding Amy Richardson w/ varying dates (Quaker 6 Sept. 1764 or 3 Oct 1765). One may be an intentions date. A son, William Richardson Thurston, was born 11 July 1766, Newport, RI, per the record of Friends & Ministers. This birth, probably in error, was included w/ the other children of Peleg and Sarah. I've yet to find a record of the death date of Sarah. Any objection to adding Amy as the second wife of Peleg? Thanks. Dave Jenkins
