Sarah Ann Dew (c1815 NC - 1850 AL or TX
Until three days ago, All I knew about my great-grandmother was her name, Sarah D. Thompson.She born about 1850 in Alabama and married my great-grandfather, Wilson Rosin Walker in 1879, in Greenville, Hunt Cty, Texas.They had 2 children and then she disappeared.I assume she died young.My grandfather and his sister were raised by an older half sister, after W. R. Walker died.
Well, finally a clue.I found a Sarah Thompson, living with her brother, in the 1870 Hunt Cty, TX census.If this is my Sarah, I believe her parents were James A. Thompson (c1811 NC - 1873 TX) and Sarah Ann Dew (c1815 NC - 1850 AL or TX).James and Sarah were married in Cumberland Cty, NC in Aug 1836.They had 6 children:
Bertha Ann Thompson (1838 NC - 1875 TX)
Elizabeth B Thompson (1839 NC - 1913 TX)
Jonathan S Thompson(1841 NC - 1923 TX)
Lucy Thompson (1843 NC - ?)
James Thompson (1845 AL - 1900 TX)
Sarah Thompson (1849 AL -bet. 1883 1890 TX)
It would wonderful to connect with anyone that has information of this family.
Thank you and Happy Hunting,
