Person:Sarah Jackson (263)

The birth date on the cemetery record for Sarah Jane does not agree with the estimated birth year according to the 1850 census but these cemetery dates are found to be 'best guesses' as birth dates were not nearly as important to them as they are in current times. Since both her parents and a sister were also buried in this cemetery, it is logical that the Sarah Jane Jackson buried there is the same Sarah as David and Elixabeth's daughter. The death date on the cemetery record is 30 Sep 1872 at age 44yrs 1mo 2days which gives a calculated birth date of 28 Aug 1828.
