Findagrave states she was born in Hingham, Plymouth, County, Massachusetts, but also states that her paretns were of Hull, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. Wikitree has it as Hull.
Sarah was the daughter of Abraham and Sarah (Whitman) Jones of Hull, MA. In 1685 she married Mordecai Lincoln, Sr. in Hingham, MA., where they had 4 children: Mordecai, Jr. (b. 24APR1686), Abraham (b. 13JAN1688), Isaac (b. 24OCT1691) and Sarah (b. 29JUL1694). In about 1700 the family moved to Scituate, Plymouth Colony, Province of Massachusetts Bay, where Mordecai built a "spacious" house and the "Lincoln Mills" at Boundbrook Bridge. After Sarah's death, Mordecai married Mary Hobart, then in 1727 died suddenly "of an apoplexy". In his Will, which was a testament of his great wealth, Mordecai provided liberally for his widow, surviving children, and widow's daughter. He also made provisions for sending three of his grandchildren to college, "should they desire a liberal education."
In that Will, he modestly called himself a 'blacksmith', but he was also a wealthy proprietor of iron works, as well as grist and saw-mills.
