Death date seen of 19 Sep 1692 in Concord, Middlesex, Mass. That's a mix up with her mother in law: Concord VR reads: Sarah, w. Jno, sr., Sept. 19, 1692.

Sarah survived her husband's death in 1717, and no other marriage is known for him.

Biography

Sarah was born 17 FEB 1668 in Woburn, Middlesex, Massachusetts, daughter of Samuel Blogget.[1]

She married John Heywood (Hayward in marriage record) on 7 January 1687 in Woburn, Massachusetts.[2]

She died 2 January 1716/17.[3]

NOTE: This is not correct; it's her husband who died on that date.

NOTE: There is a "(Heywood) Sarah, w. Jno, sr.," who died in Concord on Sept. 19, 1692. BUT there were two John Heywoods in Concord-- John Sr. (who died 17 Jan 1700/01) and Deacon John Heywood (who died "h[usband of]. Sarah" 2 Jan 1717/18). It looks like both Johns had a wife named Sarah. BUT Sarah wife of John Heywood, Deacon, was having children after 1692, so could not have been dead then. That said, we need to be careful to distinguish each of these two John Heywood families.
