• Notes

  No record exists of her birth to George Partridge and Sarah Tracy, but that she was one of their daughters is confirmed in the probate records of their son James Partridge (d. 20 Jan 1744), which mention some of her living heirs, including her granddaughter Micha (Melatiah) Metcalf. Her second husband was Cornelius Fisher, whom she married in Dedham on 27 Mar 1702. Her Wikitree page claims that she died 20 Sep 1726 in Wrentham, but no record that we have found substantiates this.
