Biography

Oldest child of Robert Ward

Her middle name appears in records as both "Stuart" and "Stewart". Her mother's given name was Francis or Frances, but no surname is available as of September 2015.

Charles C Poe said, in about 1969, that the wife of Joseph Hackney was "Danice". Was Joseph married more than once, did Sarah have "Danice" as a nickname, or is that simply a mistake?

Research Notes

• It appears the find a grave is a conflation of two Sarahs. One that married William Hackney and one that married Joseph Hackney. Find A Grave: Memorial #94272198. The look of this headstone looks very similar to William Hackney's headstone and the row is 23 for both of them so it would appear Sarah's headstone is for wife of William, not Joseph. Please see the other Sarah (Duty) Hackney.
