Sarah Harrison

(21 Apr 1854 - 7 Jan 1918)



Kentucky Death Certificate #1271
Sally Harrison, of Kerby Knob, Coyle Precinct, Jackson Co, KY, died 7 Jan 1918 of intestinal tuberculosis. She was married (to a cousin?). Her birth was 21 April, 1854 in Jackson Co, KY. Parents listed as Johnathan Harrison and Mary Ann Lakes. J. M. Spivery of Kerby Knob was the informant. She was buried Jan 9th, Coyle Cemetery No. 2.
Note: Coyle Cemetery on FindAGrave lists eight graves, all Coyles.

A descendant claims she was married to William Taylor Powell - which doesn't explain the surname on her death certificate - Powell died in 1924, after she did. He is said to have died in Madison Co KY. I do not find any cemetery listing for either.
