Biography

Disputed Origins: Some family trees have her LNAB as Wood. There was a William Wood who was a passenger on the flyboat Martha and perhaps there is an assumption she was related to him. At this time there is no source that records her LNAB. The Genealogy of the Descendants of Thomas French gives her name, simply as Sarah.^[1]

Buried Feb 9th 1653
