I can't seem to find the "correct" Sarah Grindstaff. Known as Sarah Jane, and sometimes I've found her listed as Sophia. She was married to my Great-Great Grandfather James Mason. He abandoned her and their 3 sons and I can't find anything else about her.

I am a Buchanan, from the Mitchell County Buchanan's, and also the Pitman's, and Grindstaff's as well. <br /><br />I'm not sure if we are on the same "branch", but I'm pretty sure we're on the same "limb"!! I can be reached at jnmbuchanan@gmail.com if you want to compare notes.<br /><br />Cheers!<br />Jason BuchananJason Buchanannoreply@blogger.com
