Gordon; Sally is a very common nickname for Sarah.

I had seen this family recently, but I hadn't dug in yet.. I assume Sarah is Sally? The Jeter name doesn't seem to be common, but shows up elsewhere in this family. Henry Jeter marries (1834, Montgomery Co., VA) Martha Ann Deaton, a daughter of Levi Deaton & Elizabeth P. Mitchell. Henry also witnesses the 1839 marriage consent (Montgomery Co.) for Eliza P. Deaton, another daughter, to marry Japhanis Gray. I have Levi Deaton partially traced forward at: <http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=g314spears&id=I1714> I correspond with a descendant of Nathan Deaton, but I haven't worked on that line myself I'd really appreciate any clues on what sources are out there for this Mitchell family.
