Ellsberg Collection: marriages of Mason Co, Ky 1804-1860 shows this marriage with Joseph B Power listed as father of William H, and Charles Soward, B. This William H Power was a cousin to William H Power b 1845 (son of Stephen Power and Lavina Stephens, she the daughter of Vincent Stephens and Levina Sewell) of Fayette Co KY. William H Power's daughter Mahala Jane married Jeremiah Adams and daughter Stacy married his brother Reuben Adams in Sullivan Co IN in the 1880s. Their father was William B Adams b 1826 Indiana who served in the Mexican War as a volunteer from Vigo Co. I faintly recall that Charles Soward, the father of Sarah was a minister. I have almost no data on the Adams line at all -- they have proved exceptionally difficult to trace.
