Individual Details
Sarah "Sally" Poindexter
(9 Jun 1782 - )
This date of birth as 9 Jun 1782 in the first Poindexter Family History book would seem to be the date that Rev. William Douglas recorded the birth of a child to William Poindexter & Margaret Daniel. He did not name this child. The birth date has also been assigned to Sarah's brother Joseph.
Sally married 12 Mar 1799, Louisa Co, to John Tate. The marriage record gives her father as William Poindexter. Poindexter books show a daughter born to this couple in 1802, a Susan who married Napoleon Ball ca 1821 in Elbert Co GA.
There is another Louis Co, Virginia marriage of a Sally Poindexter to a Thomas Johnson - 11 Apr 1803 - I've not been able to find another Sarah "Sally" Poindexter. Could this have been a second marriage? Could the second Sally have been a Poindexter widow?
