  • Notes: 

  • Sarah Childress's maiden name is also seen as Childers.

    Sarah Childress is said by some sources to be the daughter of Philemon Childress. Other sources state that Philemon Childress was her brother and their father was Abraham Childress and Jane Howard. Evidence is needed to determine if either of these two scenarios is correct.
