Notes for Sarah Ann Staton
The 1900 census said that she was born in Feb 1881, and her death certificate that she was born 26 Feb 1883. I consider 1882 somewhat more likely than either of those dates, since her parents were not yet married in June 1880, and her brother George was born in July 1883. But 1881 and 1882 are both possibilities.
Her death certificate records Sarah Ann Profitt, age 64 years 5 months 7 days, born 26 Feb 1883 in Menifee Co., Ky, died 2 Aug 1947 in rural Lombard area, Powell Co., Ky, usual residence rural Bath Co., Ky, married, wife of James Profitt, father John Staton, mother’s maiden name Lucinda Pettit, both born in Menifee Co., cause of death hypertension, informant Martha Donathan, Lombard, Ky, burial in Menifee Co.
