Re.: "But I don't think the accuracy of Thomas or Nancy's births would necessarily mean that Abraham and Sarah's births would be wrong."

Yes - absolutely independent "cases".

I agree with Gene and Roger on "Robert". And, as Gene said, nine months is quite perfectly in line with honeymoon.

As for Sarah - while we will probably never know and can only list possible explanations none of which yet may hit the thruth - does anyone (Dr. Houmes...?) know how survival chances looked like for preemies at the frontier in those days?
