Audee Your Sarah may be related to my Amos Paxton, born Dec 1, 1804 in Louden County, Virginia, his parents were from Lancaster County, PA. I have been unable to find any other information about his parents. Amos is found in Jefferson County living on Short Creek in the 1820's near Mount Pleasant. According to family tradition Amos became acquainted with a Sarah DeArmond and later went west to Warren County, Ohio with David DeArmond. David later married Sarah Paxton who may be a sister to Amos. Amos married Nancy Bowser on 13 March 1828 in Ohio. Amos later migrated to Iowa where his first wife died. In 1865 a schoolteacher looking for a job turned out to be Sarah DeYarmon Crowley's son. She lived in southern Iowa and her husband had passed on. Amos and Sarah became reacquainted and married on 17 sept 1865. John Crowley later married Margaret Paxton, a grandaughter of Amos. Amos died 15 Jan 1886 and is buried in the Montour, Iowa cemetery. Sarah went back to southern Iowa to be near her children.
