follows:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJames Sergeant came from England about 1770 and settled in Boston, Massachusetts. He was a fisherman and died by drowning in 1790. James Sergeant had two known sons and a daughter, Samuel born in 1770 (either in the U.S. or England) and Thomas. The sister, Sally, is only known to have married a Mr. Birdsall. The two brothers agreed on a change in name and thereafter, Samuel continued the line as SERGEANT and Thomas changed it to SARGENT.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The origin of the story with James Sergeant as the patriarch of our family appears to have come from family stories that were passed down verbally. These oral traditions were all the family knew about their ancestors. Over time, some parts were forgotten, while others were embellished. Trying to decipher the truth from their faded memories is difficult without any documentation to provide proof. It is possible that the different parts of the stories became intertwined over the years, and with further genealogy research the mysteries will be unraveled.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Adolphus Sage (grandson of Hiram Sergeant, son of Samuel George Sergeant) conducted interviews beginning in 1890 with the only living descendants of Samuel and Thomas Sergeant. His early research notes show that he, too, once thought that James Sergeant was possibly the father of Sally\/Sarah, Samuel and Thomas. Marshall Sergeant (son of Hiram, son of Samuel George) said that he was born in his grandfather\u2019s house and spent a lot of time with him until his grandfather\u2019s death when Marshall was about six years old. He recalled that his grandfather, Samuel, didn\u2019t like going to school in Boston because the boys called him \u201cSmelledge\u201d on account of his mother\u2019s family name being \u201cSmalledge.\u201d Professor Sage didn\u2019t think much about this story at first, but he later found a record in Boston for Samuel Sergeant and Bethany Smalledge who married on September 19, 1765, and therefore came to the conclusion that this couple were the parents of Sally, Samuel and Thomas. It was not until decades later that Don Wyman discovered the Boston baptism records for these three children to parents Samuel and Bethany Sergeant during the same timeframe. Don was a cousin to Penny Kresl (4th great-granddaughter of Thomas Sergeant).<\/p>\n<p>No records have been found to prove that a James Sergeant in Boston, or England, had three children with these same names.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class = \"tatsu-column-bg-image-wrap\"><div class = \"tatsu-column-bg-image\" ><\/div><\/div><div class=\"tatsu-overlay tatsu-column-overlay

Massachusetts. He was baptized on June 3, 1744, at New North Church in Boston. Samuel was the third of five children born to Thomas Sergeant and Elizabeth Tompson. Samuel married Bethany Smalledge on September 19, 1765, at New North Church in Boston.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Sage interviewed Lucy Ann (Sergeant) Miller (daughter of Thomas Sergeant) when she was about 80 years old, and Professor Sage noted that Lucy\u2019s memories varied between interviews. One time she thought her grandfather\u2019s name was Samuel, and another it was James, although she admitted both times that she was uncertain. She also said that Samuel was born in Ireland and drowned in Boston. Other family members shared those beliefs, including Marshall who believed his great-grandfather was a ship&#8217;s carpenter, drowned in Boston, and was of Scotch descent. No proof has been found to show that this Samuel Sergeant came from England, and no records of his death have been discovered either.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class =

She was baptized on February 5, 1744, at First Church in Boston. Bethany was the youngest of nine children born to Benjamin Smalledge and Rebecca Scrivener.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Sage corresponded with Luman DeWitt Sergeant (son of William Samuel Sergeant, son of Samuel George Sergeant) in 1892 and 1894 and summarized his research findings up to that point. In some of the stories, Samuel had married an English girl named Sally Richardson, but in another, it was Elizabeth Birdsall. Professor Sage traveled to Boston sometime after 1894, which is when he discovered the marriage record for Samuel Sergeant and Bethany Smalledge and he updated his research notes accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>Lewis Sergeant (son of Thomas Sergeant) relayed his family history to a cousin in 1886 when Lewis was about 80 years old. Lewis said the parents of Sally, Samuel and Thomas died leaving the children in poor circumstances in England. Since we found the children\u2019s baptism records in Boston, we know that part of Lewis\u2019 story is incorrect. However, the clue about being poor prompted a review of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.colonialsociety.org\/node\/3085\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Almshouse<\/a> records of Boston. Those records included two entries for a Bethene\/Bethine Sargent. In the first entry in January 1773, she was given wood, probably to keep warm; and the second entry was on January 25, 1781, when \u201cBethene Sargant and Son\u201d were received into the Almshouse. There are no entries of \u201cBethene\u201d and her son being discharged from the Almshouse; however, there is an indenture record for \u201cThomas Sargant\u201d just two weeks later. In those days, a young child orphaned in the poorhouse would typically be bound out, or indentured for an apprenticeship. The legal agreement expired when the male apprentice turned 21, while for females it was 18. The expiration of Thomas\u2019 indenture on September 21, 1791, indicates that his birthday was September 21, 1770, which matches Thomas\u2019 approximate birth year on his headstone.<\/p>\n<p>There were several other Smalledge\u2019s listed in the Almshouse records, including Rebecca Smalledge, who could be Bethany\u2019s mother, and Bethany\u2019s potential sister, Deborah Harley, and her two children. More research is needed to confirm if these people are indeed related to Bethany, but so far, it seems quite possible.<\/p>\n<p>The list of deaths in the Almshouse only goes up to 1771, so if Bethany died there, there is probably no record. There are no other records of a Bethany Sergeant in all of Massachusetts during this time, so we believe that she is most likely our ancestor. There are no entries for Bethany\u2019s other son, Samuel, being received into the Almshouse, nor an indenture record for him. Samuel would have been about 13 at the time, so it is likely that someone else must have taken him in. The family stories said that Samuel once worked for an Uncle Richardson, but we have not yet been able to tie that name to our family.<\/p>\n<p>The poorhouse records also list entries for a \u201cSamuel Sargent\u201d who was received and discharged a couple times in 1788 (for two weeks) and in 1789 (for six months). It seems unlikely that Bethany would have ended up in the poorhouse if her husband had still been alive to take care of his family, so this \u201cSamuel Sargent\u201d could be an unrelated person. Or it could have been their son, Samuel, who would have been about 20 at the time.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class = \"tatsu-column-bg-image-wrap\"><div class = \"tatsu-column-bg-image\"
