Notes par Sarah Cummings

SOURCE: Charles Alfred Strange, "The Strangs of Westchester," New York Biographical and Genealogical Record, 1967-1970..
" John4 Strang, son of Daniel3 and Mary (Hubbs) Strang, was born in Rye, between 1768 and 1774 (1800 Fed. Cen., N.Y.C. 6th Ward, p. 194), and died, locale unknown, between 1819 and 1838. He was a house carpenter and first appeared in the Manhattan directory of 1794 as living at 20 Rose St. That same year, on 22 April, Sarah Cummings, daughter of George and Mary (Giffin) Cummings, married the gunsmith Charles Gatfield in Trinity Church (M.J. O'Brien, Marriages in Trinity Church, Amer.-Irish Hist. Society, 1928). Sarah, who had been born in Ireland, where her parents were traveling in 1774 or 1775, was soon to be widowed, and married John Strang prior to the census of 1800 (unpublished ms. of B.E. Underwood)."
"Even before his prison term Sarah had had enough of John's peccadil­loes. He had become a problem drinker, he no longer worked, and he had a "girl friend" named Jane Collins who lived on Catherine Street. Sarah decided on divorce--a daring step is those days--and engaged as her lawyer the noted personality, Aaron Burr. Although her divorce decree was not granted until 24 November 1819, from mid-1816 onward she listed herself as the widow of John Strang at 14 Mulberry Street. Nothing further is known of John after the decree was served on him late in 1819 (N.Y. Chan­cery Ct. Div. Rec. CL 371)."
"Sarah had blue eyes and red hair, over which she often wore a blue turban. She died at home on 12 August 1827 and was buried in Manhattan. Her remains were removed to Cypress Hills Cemetery in Brooklyn and interred in her son Horace's plot on 11 November 1863 (N.Y.C. death recs.; N.Y. Spectator 17 Aug. 1827; Cypress Hill Cem. recs.)."
