An extract from the Kingston Church Records reads: "1738 July 17 in the morning died Sarah, wife of James Bean, etatis [age] 61. She had been an infirm woman for a long time; when I visited her a few days before she seemed in a very Christian frame & by what I could judge we have comfortable hope of good estate." (Probably 61 meant 65.)
