Individual Details
Sarah Younglove
( - 13 Feb 1842)
FamilySearch Family Tree has Sarah Younglove married first to Elijah Carpenter in 1780 and second to Jacob Wight in 1785. However, this is unlikely because there were Carpenter children born as late as 1792, while some of the Wight children were born as early as 1786, so the two families overlap in time. Sarah Younglove [LCJK-1FY] married Jacob Wight. Sarah Younglove [KNQH-G49] married Elijah Carpenter.
The Sarah Younglove who married Elijah Carpenter was indeed from Killingly.
