Fortunately she seems to be very happy. She tells me that she would rather die than go in a home…" |

The order for the distribution of the estate of John Charles of Branford, Conn., in Nov. 1673, refers to William Backhus' children by John Charles's daughter Sarah deceased (New Haven County Court Records, Vol. 1, p. 72)
Sarah Charles, daughter of John, was born Oct. 1637 and baptized Oct. 1640, according to records of the First Church New Haven (New Haven Genealogical Magazine, Vol. 2, p. 391). In a number of printed sources, she is attributed as wife to the first William Backus (before his marriage to the widow Anne Bingham), and she is thus made mother of the William Backus who married Elizabeth Pratt. This error has gained wide currency because it appeared in Caulkin's History of Norwich (1866)
It must be noted, however, that Sarah Charles was only four years older than Elizabeth Pratt, so she could hardly have been mother of Elizbeth's husband. Furthermore, the record of John Charles' estate cited above refers in 1673 to the children (evidently minor children) which William Backus (then living) had by his deceased wife Sarah Charles. The first William Backus died in 1664, nine years before this record, so the reference could hardly apply to him. The second William was then an adult with a number of children, and he is the only one to whom the record could apply
The fact is, the second William Backus married first, Sarah Charles, and she was the mother of his first three children, William, 1660, John 1661, and Sarah 1663. The other children were by his second wife, Elizabeth Pratt. This solution harmonizes all the facts stated above, and is positively proved by the will of Willilam Backus himself (New London Probate Records, File No. 228 (original will), recorded Book B, p. 404)
The will of William Backus of Norwich, dated 8 Feb. 1693/4 proved 17 Apr. 1721: wife Elizabeth; sons Joseph and Nathaniell; son John and grandson William; daughters Sarah, Elizabeth, Hannah, and Mary; son William had by deed of gift. With regard to his sons William and John and daughter Sarah, he wrote; "what I have given them formerly with that which I doe give them in this my will shall be the whole of their portions of my estate, anything that I Received of their Grandfather Charles his estate notwithstanding"
The identity of the first wife of the first William Backus is unknown. |
Baptism | October 1637 | Sarah Elizabeth Charles was baptized in October 1637 in Colonial County of New Haven, Colony of Connecticut, British Colonial America (North America)G+. Also shown as Oct 16407,8 |
