Sarah, the second wife of Thomas, and the only one found named on the Augusta records, is aparently first mentioned in the 1764 deeds above. Her name however, would not likely appear before Thomas’ first conveyances. As given by these, she too signed by making her mark. No record of Thomas’ marriage appearing at Staunton, the indications are that they were married prior to the establishment of Augusta Parish. The marriage records of the Parish of St. Mark (out of which Augusta was taken), have become lost or destroyed. Sarah’s maiden name is unknown; she was probably a Davis, on of Thomas’ sons being thus named. Some have thought that she was a Cravens, a sister of Daniel Harrison’s first wife; others have confused her with Thomas’ first wife, mentioning her as Delahaye. She was evidently early married to Thomas and was the mother of most, if not all, of his children. She died in 1782.
