(John) Calvin Coolidge Jr. - Wilford Ervie Billings
Sarah Upham, daughter of Richard Upham and Maria (…), was born at Bicton, Devonshire, England, about 1609.1 She died after 3 October 1665.2

Sarah married Richard Ormsby, whose ancestry is unknown (or not traced here), about 1641.2,1,3

She, along with her older sister and brother John and his family, were enrolled to emmigrate, 20 March 1635/6 at Weymouth, Dorset. By deduction, Anderson concludes they were aboard the Marygould, Edward Cuttance, master.1,4,5

In her will, dated 6 April 1668 and proved 2 June 1669, her sister Joan Martin mentions:
loving knsman, John Ormsby to have the bulk of her estate and be executor;
"cousins" Grace Ormsby, Thomas Ormsby, and Jacob Ormsby;
sister Smith.

It is uncertain who is "sister Smith." Hodge suggests it could be Sarah with a second husband.6
