Biography

Sarah was born about 1822, the daughter of Edward Sizemore and Anna B. Baldwin. [1],[2]

A previous version of this profile claimed, without source, that her birth location was North Carolina.

The 1850 and 1870 census records indicates she was born about 1824 or 1826 in Tennessee.[3],[4] The indexer (of the 1850 census) may have mis-read the second digit in her age.
The 1880 census also indicates a Tennessee birth location and adds that her parents were both born in North Carolina.[5]

I question her being the daughter of Edward "B" Sizemore-329. On several censuses, Sarah's birth place is listed as Tennessee, but there's no evidence that her purported father, Sizemore-329, was ever in Tennessee.

Thoughts?

We have two ECAs supporting Sarah Perdew being the daughter of Edward Sizemore and Annie [Baldwin]. Both ECAs were submitted by her children. So I'm now convinced she was Edward's daughter, but I'm still disturbed by the discrepancy in her birth location.

Do we have anything that supports Edward B Sizemore being in Tennessee about 1822 when Sarah was born?

Do we have a source for the other marriage to William Sizemore?

Update: I see you've detached William as her spouse. Thanks, Steph.
