The charter encompassed the Massachusetts Bay Colony, the Plymouth Colony, the Province of Maine, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. [1]

Find a Grave memorial lists the parents of Sarah as: Phillip Flanders and Joanna Smith.

Wikitree has such a couple:
Phillip Flanders-121
Joanna Smith-7916
Their daughter Sarah Flanders-132 was born in 1723, not 1710 like this Sarah.
So, this Sarah must have a different set of parents. Don't know where Find A Grave memorial got this information since it is not sourced. Priest-412 21:14, 8 July 2014 (EDT)
