Individual Details

Sarah "Sally" AVERY

(12 Dec 1817 - 3 Jan 1849)



Sarah's birthplace is also listed as Marlesville, Venongo Co, PA - there is no such place.

Sally and her husband joined the Mormon exodus west. Four of her six children died in Nauvoo and she died in Iowa.

Solomon remarried soon after her death and went on to Utah. I did not find the boys Justin or Solomon in 1850. IN 1860, Solomon, age 14, born in Iowa, was in Salt Lake, living in the household of Charles A. Terry and doing farm labor. I did not find Justin until 1870, after he was married and living in Brigham City.

The database is comprised of a 50-volume list created by Susan Black about people who were members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 1830 to 1848 and who lived in the United States, Canada or Great Britain. The database was compiled using more than 300 primary and secondary sources on early Latter-day Saints, but it does not necessarily include every member of the Church who lived during the time period.
