Francis L. Lee was my 4th great-grandfather, and father to Sarah Jane Lee (a sister of my ancestor Samuel E. Lee).
She married Jacob Sowder in Montgomery County, VA in 1839.
I love this document, because it appears to have their actual signatures.
Wedding Wednesday: Impending Marriage of Jacob Sowder to Sarah Jane Lee
Impending?…it sounds like doom.
After 26yrs I can say marriage isn’t all that bad.
Regards,
Theresa
Ha! You’re right. I don’t know why I worded it that way. I’ve been married for 13 and have been very happy. No doom here!
