Individual Details

Sarah is likely the daughter listed as "Martha N." age 1, in the 1860 census. That child never appears again - the child age 10 in 1870 is Sarah and there is no Martha. No Martha ever appears in lists of children in this family created by descendant researchers.

Unmarried when Schell heirs exchanged inherited land.
