• Notes

  The Vital Records of Mount Desert Island, Maine, page 130, lists Sarah as the last child born to Job and Martha (Bradstreet) Stanwood. She was not yet two years old when her father died. Sometime before Sarah's fourth birthday, Martha had married Robert Young, and Sarah ("Sally") had a new brother in February, 1778. The Vital Records of Mount Desert Maine show that Martha gave girth to another daugher, Pamela, on November 18, 1781. Martha died on December 13, 1787, leaving her young children, including Sarah, who was just 13 years of age. It would have seemed likely that Sarah would have married young. However, according to Old Hancock County Families, Sarah ("Sally") did not marry David Rodick until 1797, when she would have been 23 years old.
