Sails/Sales/Sailes of Wright County. MO
Searching for info on my father's ancestors. They lived in Mountain Grove, Wright County, MO and Jasper Sales was a grocer. His wife in 1880 was Sarah Taylor. They had at least five children. They came to MO from KY.
Their eldest son, Jasper (born in KY) was the father of my grandfather, Charles Burl Sailes. My father was Weldon Henry Sailes (born in Poplar Bluff, MO).
I was able to find out who my great-grandparents were by getting the Social Security application of my great-uncle, Elbert Eugene Sailes. What a thrill!
Daddy always said that he was part Cherokee, I believe that Sarah Taylor was one half Cherokee? I'd really appreciate any info you have on her. If anyone out there knows about her and/or the rest of the Sailes', please reply.
Benjamin was born in TN, (don't know where?) and he had a brother, Nathaniel. Don't know how they got to MO, either.
Thanks in advance.
