Biography
When Sarah Mary Belcher was born in 1767, in Virginia, United States, her father, Isham Edwin Belcher, was 35 and her mother, Mary Elizabeth Clay, was 33. She married Isaiah Josiah Perdue on 30 June 1788, in Montgomery, Virginia, United States. They were the parents of at least 8 sons and 2 daughters. She died in March 1824, in Cabell, Virginia, United States, at the age of 57.
"'Name: Mary Sarah Belcher.
Given Name: Mary Sarah.
Surname: Belcher.
Married Name: Perdue.
Married June 30, 1788 in Va. [1]
She passed away about 1824.
Died: 6 Nov 1824. Cabell County, Virginia, Age: 56-57.
Research Notes
Regarding her death date:
- Find A Grave[2] shows Mar 1824, with no grave marker pictured. Indeed, burial site is unknown.
- Family Search[3] shows Jan 1824, with no sources given.
- The text above makes two statements: "about 1824" and "6 Nov 1824", both with no sources.
So, until valid sources are found, Mar 1824 will be used to agree with Find A Grave.
Notes II
- I found it odd that her marriage date was 1778 meaning she'd only have been about 12 at the time...so after some quick checking it appears there was a transcription error with a FamilySearch source and this is the new marriage source from the profile (June 30, 1788):
- "Virginia Marriages, 1785-1940", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XR8J-3J7 : 29 January 2020), Mary Belshear in entry for Isaiah Perdue, 1788.
