-The Search-
I'm looking to find the maiden name of Sarah (b. ~1795) who married George MOSS (b. 1793) and lived in Onecote, Staffordshire, England.
-The Details-
Sarah died in 1837 and so the census records are not helpful in that regard (telling me where she was born).
The likely candidate is Sarah DEAVILL, who married a George MOSS in 1818 in Alstonefield. However, there are a couple of other possibilities and therefore we cannot say for sure that our Sarah is DEAVILL.
-The Connection-
George MOSS and Sarah had a daughter named Pheobe MOSS (b. 1829 in Onecote, Staffordshire, England) who married Francis WINT (b. 1819 in Cauldon, Staffordshire, England). Francis WINT had a son, John WINT (b. 1862 in Leek), who married Martha Jane KING (b. 1874), they had a daughter Nellie May WINT (b. 1906 in Alabama), who married Ray WRIGHT (b. 1899), who was my grandfather.
-The Idea-
I've had the feeling that I can find information on the maiden name of Sarah Moss by information (treasures, letters, journals, pictures...etc...) from the WINT side. Likely from John WINT on down.
-The Plea-
If anyone has information on the descendants of John WINT it would be very helpful. My grandmother moved to Wyoming to get married and so I don't know much about that side of my family at all.
If anyone has further information on Sarah Moss, or if you know a way I can verify that Sarah is DEAVILL, then that could be even better. Thank you.
