Sources: (1) Probate Court Records, names Sarah Stevens as a daughter. for Dolly Willey Heath, in Osssipee NH. (2) Mildred Hill Heath, wife of Clayton Noyes Heath, who descends from John Willis Heath, Mildred Hill Heath of Center Conway NH (unpublished family records shared with me in 2001. Permission to use name granted in Aug, 2005), I first met and obtained records from Mildred in 2001 when she was age 92. We met again in Fryeburg 10/10.2005 when she was age 96 and she updated/corrected the John Willis Heath line, specifically Edwin H Heath's son Clarence (Cad) and the Orrin Heath line. Errors appear in my Aug 2005 published info. (BGP Nov 2005), contains no info other than "Sarah m. Stevens". (3) 1790 Federal Census Strafford County NH (p 100 also in FHLs 1790 census index), An alternate source www.rays-place.com/census/strafford-nh-3.htm lists the town for Benjamin Heath of Strafford Co on p 100 as Sterling's. lists 3 females in the household. However, Glover and Penham place her birth in 1798. Also 1810 census lists one F born bt 1794-1800 which is likely Sarah. (4) Nettie W. Glover, Pasadena CA (Old, yellowed carbon copies of typed pages in Elta and Leon Gillespie files), According to her typed DAR "Applicants Working Sheet" Nettie Glover was the daughter of Frances Heath White and Lewis White. Frances was the daughter of James Heath and Jane Ayer. James was a son of Chandler Graham Heath. It is probable that this info was sent to Elta and Leon Gillespie by May Martin Gray, daughter of Betsy Martin Heath Beecher, when Dad lived in Hollywood. Though not dated, one document possessed by Elta and Leon Gillespie includes another document dated Dec 31, 1931. A third document is dated 1938. One may postulate that Nettie's first husband, E. R. Glover either died or they divorces and that Nettie remarried Mr. Wolcott before 1843. Nettie White Wolcott of Pasadena CA, states that she was the daughter of Frances C. Heath and Lewis White. They are therefore the same person. Most likely Glover was her first husband. Wolcott's info on Chandler Heath and his family's births, marriages and deaths is printed in New Hampshire Family Records in 1943 and in 1958 in FHL US?CAN Film 0854142, Item 1 at the Mormon's Family History LIbrary. BGP, gives date as 1798. (5) Signed statements of May Martin Gray (November 29, 1934), (1) 11/29/34 Typed copy of family history fact sheet which may have been filed with her DAR application. May was Charles's sister, daughter of Betsey Heath and George Armstrong Martin Sr.. (2) Typed carbon copy of 3 statements dated 11/29/34 given to me June 2005 by other Martin/Heath descendants in CA, (3) My father, Leon Gillespie, knew her; she gave Dad and his brother info on the Heath/Martin family in the 1930s which was the basis for much of family history written by my parents in the mid 1970s. "Sarah Heath--Stevens (Sally) (sister) died November 23, 1893. Was grandmother of Mrs. C. F. Stein, 729 N. Center St., Beaver Dam, WI (Information 11-20-32). (6) Nettie W.
