Notes
a. Note:   H00175
Note:   The birth record of Samuel, son of Sarah, gives her name as Sarah Ann. Sarah died between 1880, when she appeared on the census, and Jan. 1891 when Jonathan remarried. Family tridition says she died in Narrows, Virginia, in a covered wagon, from consumption after giving birth to her son, Zack (Zacheus). This would make her death in 1883. We do not know why they were in Narrows or where she is buried. It has been said that they were moving from Floyd County to Giles County. Zack had a marker placed in the middle of the lots owned by his father, in Fairview Cemetery, Roanoke, Va., in memory of his mother, Sarah, but she is not buried there.
