The following was posted by Terri Sarain Harter <btharter@colusanet.com> on January 9, 1999 on the Query system for Tehama County: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SURNAMES: SARTAIN I'm looking for past relatives that came to Tehama County in the late 1800's. First name David, middle name Eldridge, last name SARTAIN. He came to California with a wife Sarah E. Kivett, and two children; son James Henry and daughter Aveta Loga. They divorced in Colusa County. David remarries Hattie Black of Tehama County in Colusa County. They move to Tehama County. Hattie dies December 24, 1884. David marries a third time to Annie Wyancoup, Dec. 8, 1891. I don't know if he had anymore children, but he remarries a fourth time to an Emma. Another relative which came with David, is James Madison Sartain, and wife Lucy. They brought with them possibly 3 children; Thomas Jefferson, Louella, and John W. Lucy died, possibly in Tehama County, November 4, 1884. She's buried in Colusa County. John W.(age 7 yrs old) is also buried in Colusa. James remarried Margaret Griffey in Colusa and they moved to Tehama County. It looks as though they had twins, James D., and Adda Belle born Jan 1886. David Sartain's son James Henry marries a Jeannie. I don't know if they had children. James Madison Sartain's son Thomas Jefferson marries Edith E. and has two daughters; Hazel D., Jessie E., as well as a son Thomas M. If there is any decendents of any of these people, they are possibly related to my Great Great Grandfather Wright Sartain of Missouri or his brother David Sartain, also of Missouri. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Any replies should be sent to <btharter@colusanet.com>. -- ============================================================ CAGenWeb County Coordinater -- Kern, Imperial, and Tehama Counties, CA Kern Co: http://www.compuology.com/cagenweb/kerncty.htm Imperial Co: http://www.compuology.com/cagenweb/impercty.htm Tehama Co: http://www.compuology.com/cagenweb/tehamcty.htm ============================================================
