Sarah Elizabeth and sister Margaret J Christopher
by ron stone <blueoak@ix.netcom.com>
In the 1860s these two belles were in Blount Co, AL. At some
time just after the Civil War they seem to have met up with a
couple of guys just out of the 28th Alabama Infantry. That was
probably because their brother, NIMROD CHRISTOPHER, had
also been in the 28th.
Sarah married Wm P. Stone, known locally as Pittsford, per the 1866
census.
Margaret married Francis A. Stone.
1870 finds both couples have moved to Boone and Searcy Cos, AR.
1880 the same,
but in 1900, Francis and Margaret, their kids and Margaret's
mother are in Kaufman Co, TX.
Their mother's name is Eliza and she is shown as 83yrs of age in 1900.
I am seeking their grave sites. I am guessing that they are in Kaufman Co TX.
Anyone tie in with this family?
Anyone know of a chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy
there or near there?
