• Notes

  She was not in William J's will. (C-169) She like her brothers were given land near the time of their marriages by their father, William. Being a women, land was given to her husband instead. This occurred when William received a patentnd in North Carolina. They had traveled with William Jay to Casewell County, NC, and lived in the same places, all supporting the belief that Sarah is also a daughter of William. (C-1200) Supporting the fact that she is not William's child is the earliest account of the children of William Jay and Mary Vestal. It was taken from an interview of William's son John to his son Eli Jay around 1800 who remembered 7 siblings, their names and birth order. Sarah was not listed amongst them when this information was published in 1848. However, this could be because she was the child of a previous marriage to William. (C-839)
