  According to a Sweet family history that was done back in the 70's, I have Amos Sweet married to Mercy Carpenter about 1786 in Canada (no proof, just an oral history).  Their children are as follows:
Benjamin - b about 1788
Hannah
Steven VanRensselaer b. abt 1792
Phoebe b. abt 1793
Amos b. 19 Aug 1797, d. 29 Oct 1872
Elizabeth (Betsy) b. abt 1827  SERIOUSLY?
