    Notes:

    At this time there is no phone of Sarah's tombstone on find a grave. A request has been submitted for the photo. The dates are most likely wrong due to the fact that her mother died August 12, 1853 but until i get a photo or personally go to Lewis Creek to Patterson Cemetery there isn't anything else i can put. Most likely she was born on August 12th and Mary died during or shortly after her birth. Some say this was her mom's sixth child but i have not found any record of another child so far.
