Person:Sarah Mayo (25)

Research notes

• Most researchers claim that she is Person:Sarah Unknown (3283) who married John Culpeper in 1688, however that marriage record states that he married a "Mrs. Sarah Mayo", indicating that Mayo was a married surname. Does additional proof exist that the marriage record is wrong and that this Sarah did eventually marry John Culpeper (and others - see her Person page)?
• Record to consider: Sarah Mayo d 20 Dec 1735³ in Perquimans. But caution, as this could also be her niece Sarah, d/o Edward Mayo who was alive when Edward wrote his 1724 will.
