I am a collector and dealer of antique samplers came across your
very helpful site while looking for information regarding this family.
I currently have a family register sampler made by either Sarah Paige (b.
1813) or Caroline (b. 1817) circa 1828. It mentions the parents and
the date of their marriage as well as the births of some of their children
( it overlaps with your list but some children who died in infancy were
not included) and shows a house which may be the Dr. Alfred Paige House
in 1833 as shown in the book, Bethel: The Early Years. I'd be happy
to send you a photo for your files if you'd like. I have a
website (http://www.samplings.com)
with many samplers on it, however the Paige Family Register is not yet
on the site.
Thank you,
