Sarah^ (John'} b. , m. Thomas Root, born April
13, 1667, in Northampton, died 1726, in Lebanon, Conn., son
of Joseph and Hannah (Haynes)
were :
i. Sarah, b. 1692, in Northampton.
Root. Their children
ii. Martha, b. Oct. 12, 1693, in Northampton; d. young.
iii. Thomas, b. Sept. 13, 1796, in Northampton ; d. young.
. iv. Hannah, b. May 12, 1699, in Lebanon ; m. Nov. 6,
1718, Benoni Clark, born Feb. 1, 1693-4, son of
Capt. William and Hannah (Strong) Clark.
V. Mary, b. Feb. 14, 1701, in Lebanon.
vi. Thomas, b. Pec. 13, 1705, in Lebanon ; m. 1st, ;
m. 2d, Dec. 28, 1732, Hannah (Rose) Norton, widow
of Thomas Norton. Thomas Norton was born 1660,
married Hannah Rose June 7, 1700, and died May 2,
1729. The last five dates are from Farmington Church
and Town Records, from which last source we learn
that Sarali, the youngest child of Thomas and Hannah
Root, was born June 5, 1733, r.t which date Hannah
must have been at least fifty years old. Still I know
of no other Hannah, widow of Thomas Norton, for
Thomas Root to have married.
" Widow Hannah
Root," probably the same, died Jan. 23, 1762.
vii. Eleazer, b. 1706 in Lebanon; d. Aug. 11, 1706.
viii. Martha, b. Feb. 11, 1708.
ix. Experience, b. Feb. 10, 1711 or Jan. 10, according to
Morgan's Early Lebanon.
This account of Sarah*^ Clark and her children is compiled
from the Root Genealogical Record, 108 and 115, and Dwighfs
Strong Genealogy, 1473, except as otherwise indicated.
