In our attempt to trace Sarah CHESHIRE's ancestry, there seems to be a lot of confusion about the wives of her father, Richard CHESHIRE, b. 27 Mar 1759, Bladen Co., NC. Combining several records all indications are that he was married at least three times.
1) Eliza Jane (LAST NAME UNKNOWN), m. Abt 1785, 2) Polly BRYAN, m. Abt 1794, and 3) Prudence "Sly Fox" (LAST NAME UNKNOWN), m. Abt 1816.
The list of Richard's children is: James (b. 1789), William (b. Abt 1790), Sarah (b. Abt 1790), Nicholas (b. Abt 1792), Catherine (b. Abt 1794), Melsey (b. Abt 1796), Bryan (b. Abt 1800), Alice (b. Abt 1814), Harriet (b. Abt 1828), and Mary A. (b. Abt 1832).
The reason that we say "Abt" depends on whose list you go by. We are looking for any verification/clarification of this information and any information on the last name of Eliza Jane. Owen & Janie
