Joy, I have a Sarah Ann 'Sallie' Bland in the right place at the right time, BUT I don't know who she married - or if she did. She had at least 2 daughters around 1870, but their last name is listed as Bland. One of the daughters' father is listed as a James Fanning on her marriage license. You may have already researched this family and know that this is not a link, but for what it's worth - Sarah was the d/o James B. & Ida 'Dawson' Bland. James was the s/o of James & Margaret Bland. If you think this is a possible, let me know. One of her daughters is a family descendant. Linda
