About 1868, Sarah Ann, now age 34, married Leonard Davis, age 31. Her only child was born 28 Aug 1869, Also in 1872 her Father deeded her Land using her married name, Sarah Davis.
Sarah Ann reported her age in the 1860 Census to be 26 after reporting that she was 24 in the 1850 Census. This author believed a birth year of 1826 is the most probable date without any supporting documents. These two Censuses are the only documents we have of her age. However, as an added note, her parents had Sarah and three other children before the birth of Calvin (their fifth child) on 22 February 1832. Five children between 1826 and 1832 is possible and probable.
Leonard Davis and Sarah Ann Brock had the following child:
i. Mariah Tabitha "Massie" Davis, born 28 Aug 1869, Chesterfield, Chesterfield, South Carolina; married John Frazier Teal, abt 1886, Chesterfield, Chesterfield, South Carolina; died 7 May 1938, Sikos, Scotland County, North Carolina.
Sarah Ann (Brock) Davis died after 1880 at the age of 54 in Chesterfield, Chesterfield, South Carolina.
After the death of Sarah Ann Brock Davis, Leonard married Martha E. Preslar, daughter of Levi Preslar and Lydia Diggs. In the 1900 Census for Chesterfield County, Leonard and Martha reported that they had been married 16 years with 2 children, both living. In the 1910 Census, Leonard Davis reported that this was his second marriage, his wife's first. They had been married 23 years.
