Not that this helps with your question Maddie, but one of the records (text only unfortunately) on FMP shows Sarah Michell as a widow when she marries. May be why there's no baptism to be found for Sarah. It would be good to see the original OPR!

good morning all and thank you
more confused than ever

i had seen the previous marraige but only death i could find for elizabeth was in 1801, but maybe it was not recorded however thereare two children, one called abraham
if thomas was born 1723 his father was abraham

as for the woodfine connection i just dont know what to make of it
