Dear Lenora, Unfortunately, I am not at home, but at the home of my parents, helping them deal with a family health crisis, so I can't look in my computer files to help you with this Sarah McAdoo. There were several Sarah McAdoos -- it was a well-liked name in the family. I'll leave your note with the others I'll have to answer after I get home. In the meantime, you might want to address your query to the McAdoo genealogy forum at McAdoo@yahoogroups.com. There are many kind, knowledgeable people who read the notes on that mailing list and may be able to help you with this question.
