    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/INB.2ACE/184.493 Message Board Post: Am looking for info on Elizabeth Cummings, mother of Sarah (Sally), a.k.a. "Granny White", from Leesville, IN. Sally's first husband was Silas Sutherland, they married in 1803 & moved to near Toronto, Canada. They had 6 children before coming back to America, in 1820, where they settled in the Vevan, IN. area. Silas died there suddenly in about 1820. Two yrs. later she married David White and settled near Leesville, IN, in 1822. She had three more children by this husband. David White died in 1842. Elizabeth Cummings, Sally and David White are buried in the Granny White Cemetery in Leesville, Lawrence Co., IN. I am a Cummings and my parents grew up in Lawrence, Jackson and Owen counties. I was told that I am an ancester of Elizabeth and Sally, but have not been able to make a connection. If anyone knows Elizabeth's husband's name, or her maiden name, or can give me any more information on the family it would be appreciated. Sally's two-storied log house was moved many years! ago to Spring Mill State Park, in Lawrence Co., IN, in Mitchell, IN. Thanks! Virginia R.
