Sarah was born in 1809 or 1810 given the ages listed for her in several census reports. She was likely born in Dickson County, TN as the census reports list her birth state as Tennessee. Her father John G. Anderson and relations moved from Barren County KY to Dickson County TN about 1806. Sarah died after 1880 as she appears for the last time in the 1880 Hickman County census, paralyzed and bedridden.
