There have been a lot of merges and some confusion regarding the wives of Samuel Bennett, born Stonington, CT and died Coventry, RI. He had three wives and eleven children.

Sarah Harrington was his first wife. They married circa 1714 and she died circa 1723, having borne him four children.

Who were her parents? Where and when was she born? The best source I found says her father was Isaac and her mother Sarah ---.

The place given in the profile before I started cleaning it up was Watertown, MA and the birthdate was 1702, too late for her to have married in 1714 and the death date was 1741, when her husband had already married again. Perhaps those dates were from the second wife, Jane Clark.
