Hi Martin - Thanks for the additional information on Epps Jackson. I knew there was a connection with the Eleazers but I was not sure what it was. I know there are Eleazers buried at the Jackson Cemetery. Wonder why Sarah Martha Bibb is not buried there as well?....Probably because her first husband was buried in the Stuart Cemetery. Anyway, thanks a lot.
