Sarah Elizabeth? SAWYER

Born: 11 Oct 1765 probably in Goshen, NY
Died: 1???

Father: James SAWYER (1738-1782)
Mother: Elizabeth BRADNER (1740-1802)

Spouse: John KNAP?

One of the papers from the OCGS indicates it was Sarah, not Elizabeth, who married John KNAPP 24 May 1787 at Goshen. Apparently Sarah's middle name was Elizabeth and she may have gone by that name after her older sister died young?.

Elaine MASON found the following reference to this marriage in the OCGS newsletter, Vol. 9, 1979, pg. 23: Presbyterian Church Records of Goshen, NY by Charles C. COLEMAN, marriages: May 24, 1787, John KNAP and Sarah SAWYER.
