SOURCE: Email from Charles M. Whipple Jr. to Weldon Whipple, 26 Jan 2005. Extends Sarah's death date to sometime after 12 May 1710. Charles writes:

The (Aft 12 May 1710) death date for Sarah is taken from The Early Records of the Town of Providence, 21 vols, collected and compiled by the Records Commissioners (Providence: Snow & Farnham, city printers, 1892 -1915) XX:380-81. This wt the occasion of the distribution of her second husband's property after his death. She is described as "aged and unable to handle her own affairs." Ostensibly, her own death was not long after that.
