Re: Samuel & Mary (Ayrault) Sage's Son, David Sage

In Reply to: Samuel & Mary (Ayrault) Sage's Son, David Sage by Charles Cabiac of 1742

Yours in an interesting theory. I will try to raise some quetions which I am afraid will not support this connection.

Allen Sage appears on the 1850 and 60 census in Sandisfield, Mass. with a Charlotte Sage. His wife, I assume, althought she is 18 years younger.

The following census matches Allen’s age and location. 1830 US Census Sandisfield, Bekshire Co., MA p. 298
Allen Sage
00 0 0. 0 1 0 0 0 0, 0 1 1 0, 1
Eldest woman matches the age of Allen’s mother Mary Ayrault Sage his father having died in 1828.
---------
Charles Sage [Charles H. Sage, Genealogical Record of the Descendants of David Sage, Charles H. Sage, Pub 1919 Batavia, NY.] reports that Allen had no children which seems to be contracited by the followin census report. Note that age and location match. Althoough he could be caring for other a niece. Note the two other apparently unrelated people in the household.

1850 census Sandisfield, Berkshire Co., MA pg. 289
Allen sage 57 b. MA labor?
Charlotte Sage 39 b. CT
Mary B. 8 b. MA
Sarah Hotchkiss 17 b. CT
Edward Boardman 2 b. CT

---------
1860 > Massachusetts > BERKSHIRE > NEW MARLBOROUGH Series: M653 Roll: 488 Page: 568
Allen Sage 67 Farmer b. Massachusetts
Charlotte ? 49 b. Connecticut
Mary Ann B. Sage 18 spinster b. Massachusetts

Allen Sage died Aug 2 1867 according to the Berkshire Courier cited in Hoogs, Cynthia Tryon. Title Death notices from the Berkshire courier 1834 through 1890 / compiled by Cynthia T. Hoogs. Published Great Barrington, Mass. : C.T. Hoogs, [1995] in Berkshire Athenaeum, Pittsfield, Massachusetts.

All the above contradicts the information suggested on
Family Group of Cynthia Macomber, s/o Hannah Macomber & w/o Allen Sage
Macomber/Austin/Smith/Hath
http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=kintracks&id=I10480

I would ask the authors of Family Group of Cynthia Macomber to support their claim which connects their Allen with Samuel Sage and Mary Ayrault.
