| Notes |
Sarah Burden was a widow when she married to Henry Fleet. Henry Fleet between 12 Apr. 1660 when he was present in court and 8 May 1661 when his widow Sarah Fleete was mentioned. Lancaster Court Order Book 1656/57-1666, pp. 119,143.
After the death of her second husband, Sarah married Col. John Walker. John Walker wrote a will dated 22 Feb. 1665, which was probated 3 Feb. 1668. In the will he names his wife Sarah and six daughters: Anne, Frances, Jane, Elizabeth, Sarah, and Hester. The first four were children of John Walker by a previous marriage. The las two were children of Sarah.
After the death of Col John Walker, Sarah married Col. John Stone. Apparently, there was some litigation that caused some hard feelings. Sarah initially wrote a will leaving the bulk of her estate to the children of John Walker. She later revoked the will and wrote a second will leaving her estate to her husband John Stone.
It appears that Sarah died after her husband made his will dated 27 April, 1695, since she is named as a legatee in the will.
