Notes - Notes for Sarah Smith:
The entry in the Pitt/Smith Bible for her says that she was born the 28th of the 9th month (English calendar - this is actually our 11th month) 1675 about the 10th hour before noon.
She is the first born of Andrew Smith & Olive Foster. Her father Andrew Smith was listed at the church as being a resident of Burton in Royston Parish. This refers to Burton Bank, which was located in present day Monk Bretton, Yorkshire. Monk Bretton is located just east of the city of Barnsley in Yorkshire, and is about three or four miles west of Grimethorpe. It is about the same distance south of Royston. Burton Bank was the site of an early meeting of the Society of Friends (Quakers). The Friends were established at Burton Bank about 1665, and there was both a meeting house and burial ground located there. [2]
