Hi Ellen,
My records show as follows:
Sarah Armistead, daughter of John Armistead and Hannah Harrison.
Sarah married before 1763 William Russell - issue; Sarah m. Jeremiah Jordan; Elizabeth m. Henry Hill; Mary m. Josiah Lasseter; Nancy; and John Armistead Russell m. Polly Canifax..... Sarah is mentioned in the will (8th September 1744) of Hannah Damouvel her gt.grandmother. She was bequeathed one pide cow. Samuel Damouvel her gt.grandfather was French by birth. He was naturalised on 24th April 1712.Sarah is also mentioned in her father's will 21st October 1768 recorded 29th March 1769, in which he gives to Sarah and her husband William Russell, land including his plantation located at Snow Quarter Branch, situated in the parish of Southam, Cumberland County.I hope this is of some help to your research.
