"Sarah Charles married Samuel James, in North Carolina probably about 1797. She died before 1810 in Virginia, probably in Russell County at, or near, the home of her brother George Charles, as she and her family were on their way to Kentucky. It is possible she died in childbirth, or of complications resulting from childbirth. It appears that an infant child of Sarah and Samuel James might have been left behind with some of her family. Samuel James arrived in Floyd County Kentucky several years before George Charles and his family." Source: Ron Charles.
