>> What is known is from "John and Amy Gatewood and their descendants, 
>> 1666-1986" by Carol J. Gothberg.
>> 
>> Sarah Gatewood was listed as one of the "three youngest children"
>> in her father's will.  (John Gatewood, Farnham Parish,Essex County,
>> will dated Nov 14, 1706; probated Jan 10, 1706/7, page 328)
>> 
>> Sarah was still living in 1744 when her mother made her will and 
>> named Sarah Farguson as one of her daughters.  (Amy Gatewood, will
>> dated Apr 4, 1744; probated June 18, 1745, S. Farnham Parish,
>> Essex County, Book 7, pages 335-337)
>> 
>> When Sarah married John Farguson is not known.  However, she was
>> not the Sarah Farguson who was the mother of a daughter named
