Morning Everyone,
Have a question about Andrew Carnahan's 2nd wife.
Records show that after Elizabeth Billingsley died Andrew married a Sarah
Helton in Williamson Co., Tennessee on 7 Feb 1808. She was born in NC on 6 Nov
1782 and so was 20 years younger than Andrew.
Has anyone figured out who this Sarah Helton is?
One possibility I have seen mentioned is that she was really Sarah Tennison,
daughter of Abraham Tennison and Jane Adams who married 1st James Helton.
However, that sort of doesn't make sense as there is a listing for a James Helton
in the 1830 census with what appears to be a wife. Also... the 1810 and 1820
census records appear to show Sarah still living with her parents.
That is if that is the right James Helton................ and if that is the
right "female" living with Abraham and Jane. Also.. if those census record
do represent the correct "Sarah Tennison Helton" then she was born abt
1792/1794.
Since the b. date of 6 Nov 1782 for the Sarah Helton who marries Andrew
Carnahan comes from the Andrew Carnahan bible it would appear these two Sarah
Helton's aren't the same.
But..... anyone have info. on this lady???????
Thanks and take care - Emma
Emma,
I have a question for you. Not sure if you received this. Do you know
about the marriage for Ewing and Elizabeth Murphy Warrick Co, IN? I have
they were married March 29, 1839 in Warrick County, IN.
But I found a marriage certificate for "Edwin" Carnahan and Elizabeth
Murphy, dated March 14, 1839, on file in Warrick County, IN.
Do you know if this "Edwin" is really "Ewing" Carnahan both married
an
Elizabeth Murphy? The marriage date is 15 days apart.
Thank you,
