Sarah Leland; born 1789; married 1 Abel Boynton, m2 Edmund Parker
Sketch page 136: The children of Joseph Leland were all born in Scarborough, or Saco, Maine. Sarah, after her first marriage in 1812, resided with her husband Abel Boynton a short time in Bath, ME. He was a graduate of Harvard University of the class of 1804, and a lawyer by profession. In 1814 or 1815 he began to be afflicted with an incurable disease, which caused his death in 1817. He spent most of the last two or three years of his life in the West Indies, and in journeying in the southern and south-western states, in the vain hope of recovering his health. During his absence she resided in her father's family in Saco. And after the death of her first husband she remained with her parents until her second marriage in 1826 or 1827. She resided with her second husband, Hon. Edmund Parker, in Amherst, NH, for about ten years after their marriage. They then removed to Nashua, NH, where they have continued to reside until the present time, January 1850. Her second husband was educated at Dartmouth College, and graduated with the class of 1803. He is of the legal profession, and for many years he was in practice at the bar in the county of Hillsborough, NH, and for several years held the office of judge of probate for that county. When he removed from Amherst to Nashua, he gave up his practice at the bar and his office of judge of probate, and took upon himself the agency of a large manufacturing establishment. He continued in charge of this establishment until within a short time past, when he resigned the agency and retired from business. Mrs. Parker has no issue, she had two children by her first husband, and one by her second, but they all died in infancy.
