    3. Hi Thurmon After starting these, I found that the ancestry.com "title" page didn't include the date that the book was actually published. Also, I went back to answer your questions and found more information with spelling Sackett different ways. Hope it is helpful.

Samuel Wilkinson, whose daugher Zibiah married Ichabod, was a Quaker. Before his death, 1726-7, he selected a smooth stone and cut his initials on it, and it was erected at his grave. Mr. Comstock, a Quaker preacher, deemed it a vain thing and broke it in pieces. One hundred and forty years later a greatgrandson of Samuel Wilkinson placed the pieces on his grave in the old Quaker burying-ground at Woonsocket, R.I. The Quaker preacher was probably Samuel, son of Samuel of Providence. Let me know if you want any more families extracted from this.
