-------------------------

I doubt that the picture is of Edward, he is said to have died in 1831.
Did you know he was captured by Indians when he was about 15 and held captive?

I have another Sarah, daughter of Jesse Tanner - son of Samuel and Sudna
Carpenter Tanner - and Judith Miller. This Sarah married Isaac Greathouse.
I'm sure there were other Sarah Tanners as well - James and Margaret Robinson
Tanner had a Sarah born in 1801. Your Sarah is more likely to be a grand
daughter of one of them, don't you think?
