Sarah died about seven or eight months later.DON'T confuse her with marring Benjamin Harris as that is the other Sarah Snow.
[Sarah is placed in "Limbo Land" as I can't seem to located the correct cemetery.] I have placed her here but have had to remove her as she is not listed. Then place her back as this is where she resides.It is definite that she died in Bridgewater,MA.
....Info from David Packard which better explains....
I’m pretty sure Nathaniel Packard’s grandfather (also Nathaniel) inherited land from Samuel Packard near Lake Nippenicket, so it seems likely that Nathaniel and Sarah might have lived there, or nearby. I also have reason to believe that Sarah’s grandmother, Martha Tinkham Soule (who also died in 1758), and mother, Sarah Soule Snow (who died earlier), are buried at the Cemetery at the Green, in Middleborough.
Since Nathaniel didn’t die with her, and would presumably remarry, I’m wondering if it might have made more sense to bury her near her mother and grandmother?
In any case, the location clues I have suggest that West Bridgewater, Bridgewater, and Middleborough are likely the places I should focus on. If they lived on the north side of Nippenicket, West Bridgewater might have been possible. Based on the location of Rt. 104 (which I’m assuming is an older road than route), it seems likely that Bridgewater center would have been the community of my Packard line in those years. It’s also closer to Middleborough, where I’m think my Sarah Snow’s family was from.
