Son of Judge Noah Sabin, Noah Sabin Jr was born at Rehboth Massachusetts on the 20th of April, 1750 and removed with his father to Putney when he was 18 years old. He held the office of Register of Probate for Windham County from 1791 to 1801 and from the latter year until 1808 was Judge of Probate, in which he succeeded his father. He early was elected Justice of the Peace and served in the office for half a century. He represented the town of Putney in the General Assembly in 1781, 83, 84, 85 & 87. His death occurred in Putney on the 5th of December 1827 in the 78th year of his age.

His obituary read: "Judge Sabin was a man of sound mind of a placid temper and manifested upon all occasions that urbanity of deportment which commanded the love and respect of his acquaintance. He was an early settler of the town of Putney and ever took an active interest in its civil and religious concerns. He was more than forty seven years a magistrate and sustained for many years the office of judge of probate and other offices with honor to himself and with usefulness to the public. He discharged the duties of office with such firmness and fidelity as to escape with a much less share of censure than is common in like cases. As a Christian he appeared humble and unostentatious steady and uniform in his principles and practice. He seemed always to love religion and to be governed by a sacred regard for its doctrines and duties. It appeared to be his stay in the closing scenes of life. He was resigned to the will of God and ready to depart at His bidding He was willing to be absent from the body and to go to be present with the Lord."
