I found data online, submitted by David James Rockafellow which gave the birth and death dates for some members of the Sexton family. I don't know what evidence was used. He had some of the same dates for the Dugger family that I already had, so that seems accurate. His data showed that much of this family (mainly the Sexton's) later went to Nodaway Co, MO.
