Notes
Updated November 11, 2005. Compiled by Howder (www.howderfamily.com) from the following source(s):
(1) 1850 United States Census for Maine, Franklin Co., Phillips: August
10, 1850.
Sarah Sylvester is the daughter of William and Mary Sylvester. She is 15
years old and born in Maine.
(2) 1860 United States Census for Wisconsin, Grant Co., the Town of Blue
River, Castle Rock Post Office: Page 134; July 26, 1860.
Sarah Sylvester is the daughter of William and Mary Sylvester. She is 26
years old and born in Maine.
(3) 1870 United States Census for Wisconsin, Grant Co., Blue River
(Muscoda Post Office): page 4; August 12, 1870.
The Sarah Sylvester in this record is presumed to be the daughter of
William and Mary Sylvester. However she is listed as 20 years old.
Could this instead be a grand-daughter or some other relation? The place
of birth, Maine, suggests that the age might be a typographical error.
(4) Site visit to the Sylvester Family Plot (N 42∞ 51.473, W 090∞ 11.743
±26'), Graceland Cemetery, Mineral Point, Iowa Co., WI, July 9, 2004.
- She is recorded as Sarah W. Died June 19, 1888 Aged 54-2. It is not
clear whether the "2" refers to days or months.

Revolution library, Washington, DC., p. 3.
