  • Father: John Wolford
  • Mother: Mary Ward
  • Born:   1851- Aurelius, Washington, Ohio, USA
  • Died:   Abt. 1890- West Virginia, USA
  • Married:   26 Oct 1873- Gallia, Ohio, USA
  • Spouse:   Robert Stewart (1848-1925)

Sarah E. Wolford and Robert Stewart had the following children:

Sarah was born on the family farm in Aurelius, Washington, Ohio.  After her father’s death in 1867, the sixteen year old Sarah moved with her mother Mary to Harrison, Ross, Ohio and again a couple of years later to Gallia, Ohio, USA.  At 22, she married Robert Stewart, a Mercerville, Gallia, Ohio native who lost his father at a young age.  After they married, they moved across the river to Hannan, Mason, West Virginia.  Robert works as a farm laborer, and they started raising a family with three kids; William, Emma, and Anna.

After 1880, we lose Sarah in the records.  She died around 1890-1895, probably in West Virginia, but there are no records found as of yet.  Her widower, Robert, remarried in 1897 and moved to Kanawha County, West Virginia to his own farm.  He went on to have six more children!  While her two daughters went on to marry and have children, her son William may have died young.  When Robert remarries, he has another son named William in 1910.
