However right next door to Ed SARK, is Francis IRBEN (listed age 48, from Witenburgh). That could very well be her, and she was buried as SARK, the name of her first marriage. The ages work. (Ed is older than any of the Irben kids). I'd look for a marriage Frances SARK to Jacob IRBEN in Wurttenburg.
