I received the following message regarding my previous post. Others requested I post this response. I hope it helps. Michael << I have several Darling Sapps in my database, including: Darling Sapp b 25 Dec 1849 Big Muddy, Taylor Co, FL. He m 3 Mar 1872 Emiline Richardson b 22 Jun 1850 Clark, Coffee Co, AL Darling was the son of Darling Sapp b 1818 GA and Elizabeth Thornton b 1818 GA. Darling 1818 was the son of John Sapp. Both John Sapp and another Darling Sapp were found in Leon Co FL in the censuses of 1825, 1830 and 1840. John had another son, James Jackson Sapp (my wife's line). Darling and Emiline's children were: Manda Ann 1870 Lizzie 1873 Polly 1874 Elizabeth 1875 Lillie Ann 1876 Margaret 1878 Ida 1879 W. S. "Mattie" 1881 James Henry 1884 Ferdinand A. 1887 Christopher Columbus 1887 Andrew Marion (Reverend) 1890 Albert L. 1895 Mandy M. 1900 It looks like there may be some duplication in some of these names, and I don't have good solid documentation on most of them. I don't have Ellen Elizabeth Sapp in my database, but she could be either the Lizzie or the Elizabeth listed above. Your Darling was buried in the Carlton Cemetery in Taylor Co FL, and the tombstone reads: 25 Dec 1849 - 28 Mar 1926, h/o Emaline Richardson; s/o Darling & Elizabeth Sapp; Member of Capt William Wilson Strickland's Co D, 2nd Fla Cav, Union Army (note: many of the Taylor Co young men were in the Union Army in the Civil War - JEM) Emiline's tombstone read: 1850 - 21 Apr 1940 There was also a Darling Sapp b abt 1760 lived in GA. He was a Revolutionary War veteran, I think. I suspect all these Darlings were related, but we can't prove it. The story goes the earliest one was the son of a Mr Sapp who married a Miss Darlington, in SC I think. Good searching, John >>
