Sherry,
Let me interject with some information in my data base that may be of help.Your source is new to me, but a very good one.
I have a Thomas Segraves, probably born in the 1780s, listed in "Maury County, TN, Wills and Settlements 1807-1814" as having died in August 1815.A Sarah Segraves (possibly your Sally) was listed as Admintrix of the will.
The Commissary court Meeting of Feb 1816 for Maury County has an entry: "looking for home for orphaned sons of Thomas Seagraves."The sons are identified as Alfred, Harvey and Jefferson all born in North Carolina.
This Thomas has always been one of my mystery men since his ancestry is never mentioned so I don't know where to place him.His son, Alfred, born about 1808 in NC, goes on to marry a Martha D. in about 1830 and lives in Giles Co., TN through the 1880 census raising 12 children. Thomas' sons, Harvey and Jefferson, disappear from the records as far as I could find.
From this new information, it is likely that Sarah Rigsby and Thomas Segraves married somewhere in North Carolina before 1808, rather than Allen Co., KYas she remembered (or Alfred was uncertain about his place of birth).I will keep my eyes open for them as I do research.
