About Sarah Bridgman

Sarah Lyman (b. 08 Feb 1619/20, d. 31 Aug 1688)

One source claims Sarah Lyman was the daughter of John Lyman and Medad Pomeroy and was born 08 Feb 1619/20 in High Onger, England, and died 31 Aug 1688 in Northampton, MA. She married James Bridgman on 06 Jun 1644.

Another source states that Sarah LYMAN was the daughter of Richard LYMAN Iand Sarah OSBORNE and was baptized on 8 Feb 1619/20. Apparently they found the baptismal record so I will tend to go with this choice until further evidence is forthcoming. She was born about 1619/20 in High Ongar, Essex, England. She died about 31 Aug 1688 in Northampton, Hampshire, Massachusetts.
