Hi Winona, I was glad to see your posting, George Emmerling that married Sarah Burch was my great-grandfather. My grandfather was their son Andrew Leo Emmerling, I would love to share information with you.I don't have a lot of information on the Burch family other than a couple of in-family stories and my cousin Laura Epps and I have dug up a little bit that we think is the right Sarah. We think we found Sarah on the 1870 census in Davies County living with a Nancy (we figured her sister)and her family.I can't find my information right now but I think Nancy's last name was Pritcher, Pritchett or something like that.No documentation that this is the correct Sarah but we had no other leads so we were just going on this assumption.Think maybe Sarah's parents may have been Shepherd Burch and Susannah Moore, married in Kentucky.How far off base are we?I have a great picture of our Sarah Burch, I will be glad to send you a copy if you would like to have it.Laura received the picture from one of our cousins' in Ill. I believe and made me a copy.
I will be glad to share what I have and would love to know more about the information you have.Please respond either on the forum or by e-mail to [email protected].
I always love finding new cousins. Look forward to hearing from you soon.
