My CD for Adams County marriages shows Gabriel and Sarah Ann Ball as marrying on 24 Oct
1872, rather than on 14 October????
Also, my Ray Cemetery record does not show a burial of Susannah (Andrews) Strait???? Where
did one determine she is located there?
Also, If the 1880 census shows Gabriel as age 26, should he have been born in 1854 rather
than 1846????

Trey, I'm going to answer to the list b/c I'm waaay behind on
answering my
email & I believe margie sent me a message abt this too. Anyway I
seriously
doubt that Sarah would have been born in 1822, she married Gabriel
Strait
10/14/1872 & he was born c1848. This must be two different Sarah 's.
Also a lot of Straits & relative families probably named sons Gabriel
Burgess, after Gabriel Burgess of course who married Charity Strait
1/31/1833 in Perry Co., OH.
Gabriel Burgess was b. 4/1/1814 & died in Bluffton, Wells Co., IN after
1860
(anyone have a date for him??) Charity was the sister of my Jacob
Strait
&
Peter Strait who was the father of Gabriel B. Strait.
Cleas as mud right?! Cindy
