Fourth Generation


152. Sarah HOAR30 was born on 4 February 1745 in Bristol, RI.38 She died on 27 August 1826 at the age of 81 in Bristol, RI. She was buried in #441, Old North Burial Ground, Bristol, RI. She was baptized March 10, 1744-45. Her gravestone says she died August 27, 1826 in the 84th year of her age. According to Roz Edson, she may have married (1) John Card (per e-mail, 2-4-07). Source: www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp. That has her marriage to John Card 11 Feb 1762 in Gloucester, RI and her death in 1765. Also Rev. Gardiner Thurston's Marriages, V. 7, p.349. They would have had a son Elisha Card b. 8 Feb 1763 in Midlothian, RI, d. 21 Nov 1836 in Saratoga, Corinth Co., NY. There is no such place as Midlothian, RI. I doubt this is the same Sarah Hoar, but worth checking out if more information becomes available.
