Based on the date of birth of their first child, Sarah Osborn was probably born about 1640 in Connecticut, and she probably married John Peet about 1662. (1) They had 7 children and then her husband died in Jan 1678 leaving her with her youngest child only three months old. She remarried 7 years later on 25 Mar 1685 to John Brooks. (2) Her son, Benjamin Brooks, was born 7 months later on 17 Oct 1685. (3) Her husband, John Brooks, wrote his will on 11 Mar 1694 naming his "only son" Benjamin Brooks and brother-in-law John Osborn. The will was probated on 20 Ma 1694. (4) There was no mention of his wife, Sarah.
