Carol: I don't know if this helps but I found information on www.familysearch.org concerning a Sarah J. Martin and William Neal. They had at least three children list on this posting. My interest is that my great-great grandfather is named William Martin Neal. One of the children is listed as William M. Neal born about 1852 in DeKalb, TN. The only information I have on my William Martin is he was born 25 Dec 1850 in TN. He was married to Cordelia Dame and lived in Hopkins with her. His death certificate lists his father as Martin Neal and mother unknown. Sheri
