Person:Sarah Gray (81)

Sarah had one child: George Weedon (Jr) by her first husband. George was an officer in the French and Indian War and in the American Revolution. It appears that Sarah's brother George Gray handled the family's business affairs. A power of attorney granted by George Weedon to George Gray gives us the names of Sarah's children by her second husband, William Strother.^[1]
