1. | Sarah (wife of Ensign Benjamin Cooley) [?] was born about 1621 in Probably England; died on 23 Aug 1684 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts. Notes: Sarah's surname is unknown but that hasn't deterred many people from inserting a surname for her based on wild speculation or simply a mis-reading of the "Cooley Genealogy". Sarah married Benjamin1 Cooley about 1642 in Probably in the New World. Benjamin1 (son of William Coley and Joan Arnott) was born about 1615 in Tring, Hertfordshire, England; was christened on 25 Feb 1615/16 in Tring Parish, St Albans Archdeaconry, Hertfordshire, England; died on 17 Aug 1684 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts.

2. | Bethia Cooley ![]() Notes: Bethia Cooley's birthdate is the benchmark for Benjamin Cooley's appearance in the New World. Yet, Springfield was not an immigration port for English migrators so a considerable length time had to elapse from Benjamin Cooley's landing in Massachusetts (parobably Salem) to the time he gave birth to Bethia in Springfield. Included in this span of time would have been Benjamin and Sarah's marriage and their admission to a church. Debrett Ancestry Research, in a 1987 report for the Cooley Family Association, concluded they were not married before they left England. Bethia married Henry Chapin on 5 Dec 1664 in Massachusetts. Henry (son of Samuel Chapin and Living) was born about 1629-1630 in England; was christened on 25 Jan 1629/30 in Berry Pomeroy, Devonshire, England; died on 16 Aug 1718 in Springfield, Hampshire Co, Massachusetts.
