                   RESEARCH NOTE:
    After researching the Sarah Kimball's in York County, Maine, it is very probable that Sarah is the daughter of Israel Kimball and Betsy Evans. Israel's will lists Sarah as Sally, which is a nickname for Sarah. This is the only Sarah/Sally located that was born about 1813 in York County.
