Sarah was the 2nd born of Timothy Meeker, Sr. & his first wife Sarah Pierson. Sarah Pierson died with this birth & the date is in the New Style, since the calendar had changed the method of figuring dates, in 1752. Thus, one may see a different date, if figured in the old style. Sarah Pierson's tombstone, in the Orange Presbyterian Graveyard , has her date of death figured in the old style, which was Jan. 10, 1737, Sarah & Timothy had 2 children:
1. Joseph Meeker [1736]
2. Sarah [1737 or 8, as date was figured]
