My Great-grandmother,Sarah Comstock ( Maiden name Peden)first married Charles Dolan, 1870 and divorced1875 in Cedar County, Iowa.Sarah marriedmy Grandfather, William Joseph" Billie" Comstock,1881, Rochester, IA. ( Cedar Co).
They had11 children:Nancy, May, Sarah, Ida Belle, Franklin, Matthew, Gertrude and three babies who died shortly after birth.
Billie Comstock diedJuly 1895in Cedar Co., Iowa.
Sarah remarried to Mr. Francis R. WallaceJanuary1898 at Ayresbille, Iowa( Cedar Co ).
This was herthird marriage and his second.
He resided in Scott County,IAand was a blacksmith.
Sarah applied for Military Pension on her husband, Wm. J. Comstock, in 1898giving her name asSarah Wallace.
Have no idea where they were living at this time ?
When I searched for a copy of Sarah'sObituaryafter she died June13, 1922, at Tipton, IAI had a problem finding it.I finally found itas " Obituary -Sarah Elizabeth Peden "Peden washer maiden name.
So... did Sarah divorceWallace and take back her maiden name ?Her obitdoes not mention her first or third marriages. Only her marriage to Wm. Comstock.
I would like to learn when and where Francis Wallace died.
Any infomation would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
E. J. Tharp Clyne
