Sarah (1) Dulany Died much earlier than 1710, that was the year Thomas and Sarah (2) sailed for the Colonies, the 3 elder sons had left Ireland in 1703 in a dispute fueled by Sarah 2. In Ireland, mourning lasts a full year, so Thomas' earliest marriage to Sarah (2) would have been before 1702, I believe if you look at his sons age (#1 from Sarah 2) and take a year away, you will arrive at the marriage date, then take a year before the marriage bans could be posted. Then add a few for good measure.
Sarah 2 was a mean woman, she hated Thomas' 3 elder sons, had Thomas cut their tithes and forced him to change his surname, that's why they fled to the colonies.
