Notes & Citations

  1. [S467] Charles Weygant, The Sacketts of America, "32. Samuel Sackett, b. Mar. 2, 1712, d. June 5, 1784; m. Hannah Hazard."
  2. [S466] James Riker, The Annals of Newtown, in Queens County, New-York: containing Its History from its first Settlement, D Fanshaw, New York (1852), "Samuel [Sackett] studied divinity, and was settled over the Presbyterian church at Bedford, Westchester co. in 1743, ministered there for ten years, and then removed to the congregation at Yorktown, in the same county, where he d. June 5, 1784. His grave is in the village of Crompond, the scene of his labors. He was a judicious, laborious, and successful minister of Christ. He m. Apr. 6, 1732, Hannah, dau. of Nath’l Hazard, and left sons Nathaniel and James, besides daughters."
  3. [S404] Weygant records a marriage date of 1734. Given the birth in January 1732/33 of their first child Deborah, the marriage date of 6 April 1732 recorded by Riker is more likely to be correct.
