Notes
General:
The Swett "name was transplanted in 1630 from the Isle of Guernsey, in the English channel, to Newburyport, in the New World; and in 1670 two brothers, descendants of the name, came to the Cape, Benjamin, one of them, settling in Wellfleet, and Noah, the other, in Truro. They were seafaring men, and from them have descended the family name in Barnstable county." - Deyo

This history is highly questionable. 23

Truro mother killed in Route 6 collision
By K.C. MYERS
November 10, 2007 6:00 AM

TRURO — A local assistant preschool teacher was killed and three other motorists were injured in a multiple-vehicle crash on Route 6 yesterday afternoon.

Edith Sweet, 55, of Peter's Pond Road, died when her Ford Escort station wagon was struck head-on by David Gilman, 63, of Truro, who was heading north toward Provincetown in a Subaru Outback at about 4:30 p.m., Truro police Sgt. David Perry said.

Sweet's 15-year-old daughter, Suzanne Sweet Davis, a freshman at Nauset Regional High School and a passenger in her mother's Escort, was taken to Cape Cod Hospital with injuries that were not considered life threatening, Perry said.

A third car, a Toyota SUV driven by Katherine Stillman, 64, of Wellfleet, was behind Sweet's station wagon. It was struck lightly by Sweet's vehicle, and Stillman was taken to Cape Cod Hospital with non-life-threatening injures, Perry said.

Police said Gilman crossed the center line and struck Sweet's vehicle in the front, with most of the impact affecting the driver's side of Sweet's car.

Sweet was trapped in the vehicle and declared dead at the scene, according to police.

Gilman had to be extracted from his Outback by the Truro Fire Department and was taken to Cape Cod Hospital with serious injuries that were not considered life threatening, Perry said.

A longtime Truro resident, Sweet had two daughters, her oldest, Anna, is in her 20s, said Elizabeth "Titi" Yingling, a close friend of Sweet. "This is going to be very rough on that little family," Yingling said.

Sweet raised her girls in Truro, where she also taught swimming lessons in the summer. She was a popular fixture in the preschool classroom at Truro Central School, known for her creative projects, and her sense of humor.

"She would bring pine needles and grass to school, those were her art supplies," Yingling said.

Sweet would place home-made wooden houses in the sandbox, then pretend to discover them, much to the delight of the children, Yingling said.

An artist, Sweet had recently sold several paintings and used the money to buy, among other things, good winter boots, Yingling said.

"She was frugal like that, but generous, she paid her bills and then had $5 left at the end of the week, and she was happy with those $5," Yingling said.

While Perry didn't know last night whether Sweet was wearing a seat belt, Yingling had no doubt.

"She drove my kids around all the time, and she would tell them, the car doesn't work unless you put your seat belts on," Yingling said.
