Thanks to everyone who has helped with our questions. Wayne, thanks for your reference! I have a slightly different birthdate for Sarah A. Hurst-I have recorded her birth as 1813. will check that out. Now, does anyone have any more input on this 2nd marriage tp Belinda A.Whitstone b. 1815. I know that it had to have been the second marriage, as Sarah was married in 1833, and had her first child in that same year. Need to check Screven, I guess for Belinda's info and a marriage record. I would say that it was more than likely in Screven and Lewis is buried in Screven. Looks as tho he resided in both Effingham and Screven Counties. The Whitstone surname is found in Sccreven and not a hint of that name in Effimngham that I have ever seen. this does at least give us omething to go on. Another researcher commented that his notes mention that Belinda was a widow, perhaps when she married Lewis. Any comments or input welcomed. Judy Rountree Mason 2jv@bellsouth.net I do have a recent copy of the marriage of Lewis and Sarah A. Hurst here in Effingham Co. if anyone requires thos document-just let me know!
