Sarah's maiden name and parentage have not been proven. It is known that the wife of John Burr was named Sarah. It is possible that her name was Nichols.
Although Sarah's burial is not recorded in the Old Wintonbury Cemetery, and there is no headstone for her in that cemetery, she is possably buried there, because it is the only cemetery in Wintonbury that was active at that time. Many 17th century rural New Englanders were buried on their own property, and the location was later used for another purpose.
