| NOTE AND SURNAME VARIATIONS | This whole line is complicated by the fact that we have a James SCALES who marries a Sarah CURTIS; they have a son named James SCALES and he also marries a woman named Sarah CURTIS. This Sarah CURTIS is the wife of the younger James SCALES. While there are at least two birth entries in Topsfield circa 1675 which could be her, I do not have conclusive proof linking her to either prospective father. Thus, I've refrained from speculating on her parentage. One could assume there is a family link between this Sarah and her mother-in-law Sarah CURTIS. But it is only an assumption. Compounding all of this is the fact that surname variations include: Cortes, Cortis, Corties, Courties, Curtious, Courtis, Courtiss, Curteis, Curtes, Curtess, Curtic, Curtice, Curties, Curtis, Curtise, Curtiss and Curttice. |
| BIRTH | Based on her marriage date, she could have been born circa 1675/1685. |
| DEATH | Sarah died sometime after the birth of her seventh child in 1722. |
| MARRIAGE | On 10 March 1700/5 she married James SCALES, son of James SCALES, & Sarah CURTIS, in Boxford, Essex co., MA as "Corties, Sarah and James Scaels". |
