Biography

This profile is part of the Floyd Name Study.

Sarah Floyd was born in 1818. She married Thomas S Brown on January 26, 1839; they had at least one child, John Wesley Brown. She died in 1844 at the age of 26.[1]

BURIAL[2]
Mount Zion Cemetery
Van Buren Township, Brown County, Indiana

Sarah was the first child of John and Julia Ann (Bradley) Floyd. She was born in Pulaski County, Kentucky. Her family migrated to Brown County, Indiana.

Spouse: Thomas S. Brown 1814–1896 (m. 1839)

Children: John Wesley Brown 1839–1928

- 26 January 1839 Sarah was married to Thomas S. Brown in Brown County, Indiana.

- Sarah died young as Thomas was married a second time 11 June 1842. Her death was from childbirth. She is thought to be buried in Brown County near Story, Indiana on the old Brown farm.

Research Discrepancies: FindAGrave has different birth date and location. It does match with other data. It does include bio listing her son, John Wesley Brown 1839-1928, therefore her death resulting from childbirth in 1842 must have been from an additional child.
