Richard Blue Heath and wife Sarah Elizabeth (Jordan) Heath are my g-g-g-g grandparents.
I realize that this marriage in 1823 makes Sarah about 13 when she married, but this birth year is confirmed again by her headstone many years later. They were together for their entire lives. Richard and Sarah met and married in Cabell Co. VA. They moved on with the rest of the extended family to Missouri about 1839 or earlier.
Their 11 known children were:
America HEATH b. 1826 Cabell Co VA (married Walter Mitchell). America Heath and her husband came to TX with her father but did not like it. She returned to MO where she remained for life. She married an early photographer Walter Mitchell.
John G. HEATH b.14 Feb 1829 Cabell Co VA
Ebenezer 'Webster' HEATH b. 12 Sept 1831 Cabell Co VA
Frederick G.L. HEATH b. 17 Sept 1832 Cabell Co VA
William Spencer HEATH b.1836 Cabell Co. VA
George Washington HEATH b. 1840 Benton Co MO

James 'Thomas' HEATH b. 10 Oct 1844 MO
