Sarah "Sally" WRIGHT 2 3
Sarah's father was Thomas Wright who died in Randolph Co., IN in 1835 and was born in Newberry SC in the 1760's. He and his wife are verified as the parents of Sarah Wright in her marriage certificate to John Coats. She, however, is listed as being born in North Carolina in her son William's 1880 census record, but in South Carolina in several other of her children's 1880 census records. It is amazing to note that she had children over a 36 year period of time. 4 Sarah married John COATS Sr., son of William COATS and Mary "Polly" JAY, on 10/21/1807 in , Miami, OH, USA.1 (John COATS Sr. was born on 1/20/1788 in SC or NC,5 died on 9/19/1878 in Union City, Randolph, IN, USA 4 5 and was buried in White River Cemetery, Winchester, Randolph, Indiana.) |
