Research Notes

Husband thomas Will in cass Missouri lists sarah as first wife. Found his 2nd Marriage to Mary Foster in 1856 Cass Missouri and Sarah was living in the 1850 census. Looked for wills of a Sarah between 1850-1856 found a Sarah with illegible last name listing two people with the surname Davis as executors then finally looked people on the 1810 census page for her father in law Roger Lee Mcknight and found a John Davis found his probate in 1840's Buchan Missouri where Sarah lived at the time period which listed Sarah's Son William Mcknight the only William Mcknight I could find in Buchanan Missouri during the 1840 census. This also Means James Davis living with her son Willey as a young teen is probably a nephew or cousin since he was born about 10 years after her father's death.
