From Find a Grave contributor:

Sarah Tracy, eldest child of Stephen Tracy & Tryphosa Lee, b. in or just before Jan 1622/3 likely in England while her parents were preparing to sail to Plymouth, Mass. on the Ann. Sarah died testate before Oct. 6, 1708, the date her will was probated (see below.) Some claim she is interred at "Mayflower Cemetery" at Duxbury, Mass., which did not exist until long after her death. Alternately she is claimed to be interred at the "Myles Standish Burying Ground," formerly known as the South or Chestnut Street Cemetery at Duxbury. Regardless of where she was interred, Sarah either had no original gravestone or her gravestone has long since decayed away from modern knowledge.

Historical accuracy is the foundation of family genealogy, and when historical documents contradict what is claimed in print, appropriate explanation is required why a change is necessary. The maintainer of this memorial, Sarah's descendant, has received repeated suggestions to change Sarah's birth location to Leiden, Holland. I recognize that Dexter in The England and Holland of the Pilgrims, 1905, p. 636, was among those claiming that the first three members of the Tracy family - Stephen, wife Tryphosa, and dau. Sarah - sailed together in 1623 on the Ann or companion Little James, and by inference dau. Sarah was born at Leiden. More recent documents make such claim unsupportable.
