Facts and Events
Sarah Josephine's marriage record said she was born in Jackson County and resided in Jackson County, West Virginia; but the 1880 census record for her family said she was born in Ohio and that appears more likely; though her sister was born in WV. During that time period, the Ohio River was used as a highway for boat traffic, not only up and down the river, but across the river into Ohio. So perhaps there was visiting back and forth.
Ah ha! So here is Edith's mother Josephine Ball!! (See 1910 below.)
