Sarah George (Elmore?) - Needs Fixing

J Franklin Please show evidence for parents here, and also in the profile “about.”

Evidence needed to support parents of Thomas Elmore, Sr., of New Kent County & Rebecca Elmore

I’m having trouble with her “Mary” daughter, if anyone can clarify.

At the moment set up as:

Mary Goodwin

And also as Mary Herndon

See notes.

There seems to be a good bit of confusion about birthdate and parentage of Sarah Elliott, perhaps signaling the conflation of two or more women of that name, one of whom may have been born Elmore and the other one Tinsley. The Sarah Elliott who died in 1734 was probably born in 1666. If she was a Tinsley, this would probably make her the daughter of Thomas I,not Thomas II.

There is a Sarah in the Christ Church VA Parish Register as the wife of Thomas Elliott. However, if she was born in 1666, they cannot have been married in England in 1664, as listed above.

The Sarah and Thomas Elliott recorded in the Christ Church Parish Register had one daughter, Mary, christened Feb. 27, 1687. Thomas Elliott (described as being "of Chipping Orgur, Essex") was buried a few months later on March 4, 1687, and Sarah remarried to Robert George. They had a large family. This Sarah was still bearing children in 1709 or later, so she could not have been born in 1632. SO--there may have been a Sarah (Unknown) born in 1632 and married to a Thomas Elliott in England in 1664, and she may have had a daughter Mary, but this is not the same Sarah Elliott recorded in the Christ Church Virginia Parish register as the wife of Thomas Elliott (who died in 1687) and who then married Robert George.

Find-a-grave has the following information, with a death date that matches the one above for Sarah Elliott, though the birthdate is very different (http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=61613139)
