Marriage* | circa 1782 | She married John Finney, son of William Finney and Mary (-----), circa 1782. Whitelaws shows that 280 acres of land in tract A121 belonging to Ralph Justice was left to his granddaughter Sarah, the daughter of Abbott Justice, in 1729. Sarah married Jonathan Warrington, but he died in 1744 without an heir, so title remained with Sarah. For some years afterwards, the processioning records give a John Evans as being on this land, so he may have married the widow Sarah Warrington, but no disposition by either a John or a Sarah Evans could be found. Later on a John Finney, son of William, was in possession and in 1809 he left the north part to his eldest son John Evans Finney and the south part to his son William J. Finney; the name of the eldest son is significant, as it suggests that John Finney had married a daughter of John & Sarah Evans.1 |
