Sarah Amanda McComb's, McCOMB FAMILY.SLFHL: 929.273. M134 ms. pg 55.
WILLIAM HAGUE Jr (b 1793) got the family inheritance, pg 59:
1830 June 30: " I William Hague (b 1746) of Manallen Twp, Fayette Co, PA being weak of body and desirous to settle my worldly affairs, do make and publish this my last will, and the only will.
It is my will and desire, after my decease and the decease of my wife, Ruth, that all my real and personal estate shall go to and belong to my son, William Hague, Jr., inasmuch as he has lived with us a long time and taken care of us, and expect him to continue with us--for this I think it best, just and right that he should possess all our property at our decease. June 29, 1830." (William b1746 was 84, Ruth was 68 at the time, and son William was abt 37 in 1830. Ruth died sometime after the 1830 census. William b 1746 did not die until 1843 at age 97. That was a long time for Wm b 1793 to be a care giver.)
INDIANA BIBLE RECORDS, DAR; SL 850419; pg 115. "Ruth Mendenhall . . . Children: John, m Sarah McComb; Isaac; Hannah, m Lambert McComb; Elizabeth, m Thomas McConkey; WILLIAM MD 2nd SARAH MILLER; Aaron."
Wonder if this Sarah Miller is the same as the Sarah Miller b 1816 d/o Wm Miller and Rebecca Johnson. Rebecca Johnson d/o Daniel and Sarah (Mendenhall) Johnson?
