RESEARCH NOTE: The ancestry of Sarah Watson has been in question, resulting from conflicting data in family records. Sarah Watson is found in both the records of Danby in Cleveland (ch. 11 jan 1705) and Drypool (ch. 15 nov 1716), and both women have been listed as the wife of Thomas Yeoman. However, the christening record for the Sarah christened in Drypool also shows a death date - 28 nov 1731. This is before the marriage date and eliminates this Sarah from the discussion. It also significantly reduces the likelihood that Robert Watson and Elizabeth Dent of Drypool had another daughter Sarah that was the wife of Thomas Yeoman. Thus the Drypool Watson line is now ruled out, and the Danby in Cleveland Watsons can be included in the file with a good measure of certainty.
