Have you considered Sallie Outten b.c. 1812? Sally was often a nickname for Sarah. Here's what John Perry Outten wrote about her:

"Abraham and Sophia, his wife were the parents of eleven children as follows: Mary Lingo Outten, the eldest child, was born November 9, 1809. The second child was probably the one that was burned to death, but the name and sex are entirely unknown to the writer. Then, SALLIE, Nancy, Eliza, Thomas, Seth, Obed, Sophia, Jane and Perry."

"Of the nine children of Obed and Sophia who grew up to manhood and womanhood, Seth and Eliza died in middle life, each one leaving two small children. The other seven reached advanced years, and most of them lived to extreme old age. All of them died in a similar manner, with apparently the same disease, and there was every evidence of decline and decrepitude."

Do you know if Sarah Outten Scott lived to "advanced years"? If so this might be the connection as this family is from Sussex Co. DE.
