Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier record.
The 1860 census page shows Elias Bentley, 52, and Sarah, 52, born in New York, with children Frances, Ann E, Sarah L, Esther E and Joel. Sarah's age fits a birth around 1808 (before 2 September would give age 51 on 30 July 1860; a recorded 52 is within one year of the claim). The record does not give the exact date or the town of birth, so it is consistent but does not establish those details.
Matches: Household of Elias Bentley (52, farmer) includes Sarah, age 52, female, in Sandy Creek, Oswego, New York, 1860; Age 52 in July 1860 implies birth about 1807–1808, matching the claimed 1808; Birthplace given as New York, which fits Stillwater, Saratoga County; Citation locality (Sandy Creek, Oswego, NY) matches the image
Limits: A census gives an age and state of birth, not a birth date; 2 September 1808 is not stated; Birthplace is only 'New York', so Stillwater, Saratoga County is not confirmed; The entry names Sarah as 'do' (Bentley) but does not state her relationship to Elias; wife is inferred; Citation says page 958 while the image header reads page 156 (likely an image/stamped page difference); The household cannot be tied to Sarah Bentley (1808–1886) without other evidence, such as the children's names
