The burial site of Sarah and her husband William could not be found. There are concerns over the accuracy of this information. I agree with the poster below. Dates are not lining up either. Maiden name should be Eldredge if the parents are correct.

*****
Sarah married William Bentley about 1674. They had the following following 6 children:

1. William Bentley b: 8 Jul 1677 in North Kingston, Washington, Rhode Island
2. James Bentley b: 26 May 1679 in Kingston, Washington, Rhode Island
3. Thomas Bentley b: 19 Jun 1685 in Kingston, Washington, Rhode Island
4. Benjamin Bentley b: 27 Mar 1690 in North Kingston, Rhode Island
5. Robert Bentley b: Abt 1684 in Rhode Island
6. Jane Bentley b: 1686

Suggested edit: I think this woman is linked to William Bentley in error. All the genealogies I've been reading state that Sarah's last name was not known. Most commonly, it's been suggested that it was Leithfield, but never proven.

Also, the towns of Yarmouth and Amesbury in Massachusetts are very far away from North Kingstown, Rhode Island. 1.5-2 hours by car and you have to cross a bay to get to Yarmouth (I live in Rhode Island). Anyway, I doubt this woman was William's wife.
