Research Notes

• Note posted on her husband George's profile by Edna Wood:

I have done some research on George Underwood and it is enough to realize at least one George was not the son of Margaret Jackman and John Underwood. This involves DNA research and a letter written from Nova Scotia stating George Underwood married his cousin Sarah/Sallie Underwood who was the daughter of John and Margaret [Jackman] Underwood. George was most likely the son of William who was the son of John Underwood and ____ Slaughter. Wills are also available to study. Of course there were many Underwoods with the first name of George. This is in regard to the one who married Sarah/Sallie Underwood and moved to Union Co. SC. Much repair to this family is in order

• There is a Sarah Underwood, b. 1772 in Tennessee, who is listed on the 1850 US Census (Mortality Schedule). She lived in White County, Tennessee when she passed away in June of that year of consumption at the age of 78.^[1]
