      [It is believed the child, Sarah, is the daughter of Deacon Joseph Boothe, Jr. (1689-1763) and Sarah Thompson Sherman Booth (1709-1784) due to the fact that Joseph married Sarah on 2 Nov 1732 and Sarah was born 1735 and died 1808. They had another child, Samuel born 1746 and died 1824. Son Samuel married Jerusha Walker and had Ely and Hulda Booth.]
