Individual Details
Sarah Walters
(1796 - Abt 1855)
The manuscript file found in the library in Paris, Henry Co TN, had this Sarah placed in the family of John & Rhoda Walters, who also lived in Grainger Co along with Obadiah's family. She's a bit too old to belong to John & Rhoda and I'm sure she was Obadiah's daughter.
Grainger Co marriages:
Hagner Bray to Sally "Waters" on 12 Aug 184. Henry Bray, Bondsman.
This couple is about the right age.
