!SURNAME: Records of the Va. Conference, Southern States Mission,
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, FHL microfilm #0001995
(baptism of Mary Ann Martin, daughter of Sarah "Dallens").
A transcription of excerpts from this record is posted at
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~vagenealogy/heritage.htm
BIRTH DATE: Sarah DOLLINS MARTIN was born between 1770 and
1775, as shown by the following evidence:
(1) Federal Census; 1840; Nelson County, Virginia; page 67 (giving the
age of William Martin's wife as 60-70; thus, born 1770-1780).
(2) Federal Census; 1820; Nelson County, Virginia; page 196 (giving the
age of William Martin's wife as 26-45; thus, born 1775-1794).
The overlap in these records of Sarah's age is 1770-1775. I have, therefore,
given her birth date as "about 1773" -- near the middle of that five-year
range. Birth place is based on the fact that her father apparently lived in
Albemarle County (see below). (That the William Martins in the above
records are my William Martin is indicated by the facts that (1) William's
age as given in the 1840 and 1820 censuses matches his age in the 1850
census of Nelson Co., and (2) the children's ages as given in the 1820
census match the ages of my William's children per other records (except
that the 1820 census includes an additional female child). I have not used
the 1830 census in the above calculation because I cannot find a William
Martin family in Nelson or Albemarle Co. in that year, in which the ages
of the father and the child match those of my William Martin and his
children.)
!PARENTS: Bill of Complaint; Nicholas Burgher etc. versus Joseph
Burgher etc.; Albemarle County Chancery Cases; Library of Virginia
Index number 1826-012 (stating that Sarah Dollins who married William
H. Martin was a dau. of Anna Burgher, sister of Benjamin Burgher);
Estate settlement of Benjamin Burgher; Albemarle County, Virginia;
Will Book 7; page 429 (allotting part of Benjamin Burgher's estate to
"the heirs of Rich. Dollins Decd"). Transcriptions of the above
documents are posted at http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/message/
an/localities.northam.usa.states.virginia.counties.albemarle/1917.
The connection between Sarah and her father, Richard Dollins, is also
reflected in the following evidence:
(1) Sarah and her husband, William H. Martin, inherited land
from one Richard Dollins (Deed from William H. MARTIN and wife
Sally to John DOLLINS; Albemarle County, Virginia; Deed Book 24;
page 432 (conveying "land which was owned and inherited by Richard
Dollins Decd., and of which said Richard Dollens died possessed, and
which said undivided interest has descended to the said William & Sally
his wife as heirs and distributees of the estate of said Richard Dollens
Decd. and which said interest is one third part, of the whole tract")
(Sarah signs "Sarah her X mark Dollins") (executed Oct. 18, 1824)).
(2) One Samuel and Elizabeth WOOD also inherited land from Richard
Dollins (Deed from Samuel and Elizabeth WOOD to John DOLLENS;
Albemarle County Deed Book 24; page 434 (executed Oct. 18, 1824) --
which deed is recorded immediately after that of William H. and Sarah
Martin, and uses precisely the same language).
(3) One Elizabeth Dollins married Samuel Wood (in 1815), and that
Elizabeth's father was Richard Dollins (Albemarle County Marriages,
1780-1853; by John Vogt & T. William Kethley, Jr.; vol. I; page 350).
